Editors: Uwe-Karsten Gross, Gunther Martin Gottsche
Format: Book
Instrumentation: Organ

Traditional church organs are no longer reserved exclusively for Bach & Co. The "Queen of Instruments" has long been conquered by popular styles and these have lent the organ a very wide range of expression.

Following upon the huge success of Jazz Inspirations 1, this volume expands the selection of suitable pieces. Its great attraction lies in the varied interpretation of its chosen themes, whether a "Groovy Meditation" by Matthias Nagel, an "Organ Groove" by Maria Scharwiess , or "Once in Royal David's City" by Jan Janca.

• Popular music for church organ
• Jazz, swing, blues and much more

"This is a book I can happily recommend for any church choir, for use in the liturgy and on the concert platform." (Australian Music Teacher International vol. 12 no. 6, May June 2007)
