Organ Music for Church Services

Paul Edwards unearthed this charming Victorian voluntary in the British Library. (So far as is known, the composer is not an ancestor of your publisher). F C Atkinson graduated Mus B from Cambridge in 1867 and, amongst other posts, he was organist at Norwich Cathedral from 1881-1885. This piece was published posthumously in 1897. The music is graceful and fluent and will serve admirably as an opening voluntary, or a quiet postlude at Evensong.
