Finale on 'Hyfrydol'

Henry Coleman (1888-1965) served at a number of churches, and was then Organist of Peterborough Cathedral, and finally at All Saints, Eastbourne. He is quite well-known as a composer of works for "parish choirs." His music is colorful and well-crafted, but within the technical limits of good, "amateur" musicians.

"Finale on 'Hyfrydol,'" is a good example of his style. It is solid and straightforward, and his a nice "swing" to it. At the climax, he indicates that the "Full Great" should be used, but I used the "temporary Solo Tuba stops" for the left hand chords.

Here again, you really want the big reeds to complete the Full Organ. The pedal just isn't "full" enough, and the final notes need the 32' Reed! ;-)
