MUSIC FOR ORGAN & CHORUS

Choral & vocal music is a mainstay in the composition catalog of Frederick Frahm and a significant portion thereof features significant parts intended for the organ. The distinction as to whether the organ or the chorus is primus inter pares is often ambiguous. The bulk of this music was composed for liturgical use and the scores require skilled performers, colorful instruments, and the benefit of a live and radiant acoustic. Each of the works noted below are available in performing editions directly from the composer. A full score and parts can be posted or e-mailed for a reasonable fee.
