The authors' new approach to learning two playing techniques offers a systematic method for mastering the modern, legato technique needed for organ music composed after 1750, as well as an articulated technique for earlier works. The authors also present useful information on accompanying anthems and solos and on adapting piano and orchestral accompaniments to the organ.

Noel Jones has put together a truly wonderful collection of varied pieces, all based on hymns in honor of Our Lady. The pieces are varied in character and technical requirement, but they are all rewarding to play and listen to, and they are supremely well suited to liturgical use. In addition, many would not be out of place in an exciting organ recital program. As with its sister volume based on Ave Maris Stella, it is worth reiterating that although these pieces are based on Marian hymns, there is no reason why they couldn't be used in a variety of other settings. There are some truly wonderful works in this volume, many of which are not readily available elsewhere, and I congratulate Noel Jones and Frog Music Press in bringing this useful volume to print.
