Cecilia McDowall is one of Britain’s most acclaimed composers. Her choral music, in particular, has earned her a worldwide reputation, yet an equally distinctive voice is revealed in her organ works. The O Antiphon Sequence, commissioned by the American Guild of Organists, is capricious, meditative and luminous. The George Herbert Trilogy encompasses rhapsody and brilliance, while McDowall’s mastery of the miniature form is demonstrated in her contribution to a project to finish Bach’s incomplete Orgelbüchlein. © Naxos
