Thou Art the Way - Vibrant Organ Miniatures on American Hymn Tunes

Description:

Grimoaldo Macchia is one of Europe's most popular composers and arrangers of sacred organ music. In this volume, he applies his vibrant style to thirteen hymns that originate from the USA. Included are traditional folk hymns (such as “What Wondrous Love Is This” and “Amazing Grace”) as well as later-composed tunes of American origin (such as “To God Be the Glory!” and “Shall We Gather at the River”). Crafted with a fresh perspective on these hymns, Macchia’s brief pieces will make for delightful preludes, offertories, and postludes throughout the church year.
