Oldroyd: :Liturgical Improvisation No. 1

David Macfarlane, organ Hauptwerk Virtual Organ, sample set of the 1914-1916 Walcker organ of the Martinikerk in Doesburg, Netherlands. George Oldroyd (1886-1951) was an English organist, composer and teacher. Throughout his career he served at anglo-catholic “high” anglican churches and was a proponent of the “palm court” style of church music characterized by swooping melodies and lush harmonies. His “Three liturgical Improvisa- tions” (1948) for organ quote Gregorian chant melodies and clothe them in atmospheric harmonies. No. 1 has the sub-head “My soul hath a desire and longing to enter the courts of the Lord.”
