Need a great Recessional

[JONESEY]

Hi,

I've been asked to play for a pretty big service this year in May and am trying to think of a suitable recessional.

Has to be short but punchy - I tend to prefer Bach, Mozart etc - nothing modern for me

Suggestions would be welcome

Thanks
Jonesey

Hi Jonesy, John Stanley Op 5 No 3

Free PDF scores - http://icking-music-archive.org/ByComposer/Stanley.php


or Wm Boyce No 7 or 8 from his 10 Voluntaries for Organ or Harpsichord

Free PDF scores - http://icking-music-archive.org/ByComposer/Boyce.php

These all seem to start with a short slow movement which could possibly be omitted.

The WIMA site also has electronic renditions which give you a reasonable idea of the pieces.

I did upload MP3s of the Stanley op5/3 and Boyce 6,7 & 8 in the GrandOrgue thread

If you were after something a little less "trad" and a bit of fun, try Berlioz's Toccata

http://imslp.org/wiki/Toccata,_H_99_(Berlioz,_Hector)

I often dig out that one if I'm after something short and punchy.

I recommend my Trumpet Tune (5th popular wedding recessional in Finland at the moment): http://www.haamusiikki.info/trumpettisavelma.mp3

Not to everyone's taste, of course (what would be?).

Toccata pour grand orgue by Gaston Belier is nice too.. 2 recodings on you tube also.

Hi FinnViking - I really like that piece.
Where can I get a copy of the music?

Hi Jean-Paul,
