Designed as short hymn introductions for worship, Timothy Albrecht’s Grace Notes have become a repertoire mainstay for organists. Published between 1987 and 2005, the twelve books offer more than 100 settings of hymn and chorale melodies for the entire church year. These imaginative and well-crafted works for organ are fine examples of the continually flourishing art of the chorale prelude. Organists studying hymn improvisation will find much inspiration in Albrecht’s concise blend of technique, form, and artistic wit and wisdom. A complete tune index and sample pages are available at the bottom of this page.
