From the composer: "This work is modeled on the genre of 18th century English baroque organ voluntary, though with a harmonic language that blends contemporary modality with an 18th century harmonic vocabulary.
The work is dedicated to Paul C. Edwards, a native of Bedfordshire, one of the foremost editors of repertoire within this genre, and a composer of contemporary works inspired by this period.
In the traditional manner, a slow introductory section for diapasons is followed by a lively allegro featuring a cornet (or trumpet) solo. Optional markings for an “echo” are included (which, if observed, may be played either on the same manual as the accompaniment, or on a third division)."
