Written as a companion volume for his successful Six Choral Introits for the Church Year (WLP 005783), these well-crafted introductions and accompaniments for standard hymns also stand alone as a resource for every organist. The brief introits (which can also serve as an interlude between the choral singing of one of the six introits and the congregation’s singing of the hymn) are followed by fresh yet instantly accessible accompaniments.
Included are:Advent: Veni, Emmanuel/O Come, O Come, Emmanuel Christmas: Adeste Fideles/O Come All Ye Faithful Epiphany: Puer Nobis Nascitur/What Star Is This? Lent: Parce, Domine/Hear Us, Lord, We Pray Easter: Easter Hymn/Jesus Christ is Risen Today Pentecost: Lambilotte/Come, Holy Ghost
Proulx combines the art of the master composer’s innovativeness in the introits with a pastoral musician’s ear for solid, well-grounded writing to support congregational song.
A valuable and interesting addition to every organist’s repertoire.

Something truly new for organists! Dr. Lynn Trapp, of the Liturgical Organists Consortium and director of music and liturgy at St. Olaf parish in Minneapolis, has taken the melody of the great Easter Vigil chant and written an extended work for organ based on it. Haunting to exuberant, the Vigil’s movement from the entrance of the Lumen Christi to the triumphant “Amen!” are captured effectively by Trapp’s masterful writing. Organists will find the writing challenging, yet very idiomatic for the instrument.
Commissioned by Consortium member Dr. Jennifer Pascual, director of music at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City, this work was premiered in 2006.
