This set of three organ improvisations, each based on a liturgical text, is written in a quintessentially English style: largely diatonic but not unremittingly consonant, flowingly melodic, texturally rich, and steered away from predictability by constantly varying bar- and phrase-lengths. Organists will find this a usefully versatile set of voluntaries, or an unusual and rewarding recital piece.

Dr George Oldroyd was an English organist and composer of Anglican church music. He was organist of St. Alban's Church, Holborn from 1919 to 1920, and then of St Michael's Church, Croydon from 1920 until his death.

My soul hath a desire and longing / To enter the courts of the Lord; Whoso dwelleth under the defence of the most High / Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty; Verbum supernum prodiens (Pour light upon us from above)
