Peter Hurford: Meditation | Laudate Dominum Suite | Steinmeyer Organ (Landau)

Today I play Meditation, the third movement from Laudate Dominum, a suite for organ by Peter Hurford. Laudate Dominum consists of six movements, each with an evocative title and a short quotation from the Psalms. This movement is inspired by Psalm 42: “Like as the hart desireth the waterbrooks: so longeth my soul after thee, O God.” The music reflects a deep sense of longing and inward reflection. Meditation is calm, lyrical, and restrained — music that speaks quietly, yet with great depth. I performed this piece on the Steinmeyer organ from Landau (Germany), played via Hauptwerk. The warm, singing foundation stops of this instrument suit the introspective character of the music beautifully. And… I finally found a stylish and affordable desk lamp for my console so I bow can read paper sheet music more easy at night! 🎼 About the Composer Peter Hurford (1930–2019) was a British organist, composer, conductor, and teacher. He was especially admired for his Bach interpretations, his clarity of musical thinking, and his deep understanding of liturgical music. As a composer, Hurford wrote accessible yet refined organ music, often rooted in choral tradition and sacred texts. Laudate Dominum is a fine example of his style: thoughtful, well-crafted, and spiritually reflective without being overstated. Thank you for listening.
