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 Church's premiere chant and written an extended work for organ based on it. This is the first time that the organ's chant-rich repertoire has been enriched by a piece based on this particular chant! Haunting to exuberant, the Vigil's movement from the entrance of the Lumen Christi to its thundering "Amen!" are captured effectively by Trapp's masterful writing. Organists will find the writing challenging, yet very idiomatic for the instrument. Especially appropriate as a prelude or postlude during the Easter season.
