Celebration: The Two Williams – organ solo

Celebration: The Two Williams” (2002) for organ – 7’00”.  The work was written in memory of my father, William Daugherty, and first played by one of my mentors from Denison University, organist and choir director, William Osborne.  The piece begins with a fanfare that expands into a dignified march.  The middle section is somewhat rhapsodic with a chordal texture that underlies cadenza-like bird calls.  The work concludes with a return of the march.

When you buy music on this site, you are purchasing a PDF from which to make your own copies.  While I would love to have my works widely distributed, I trust that you will make copies only for yourself and the group you represent.  Thanks.
