Partita

**Apologies - I am missing a couple of seconds of audio at the end of the plain audio file - the YT video is complete - not entirely sure what happened here**

Tim Knight is an award-winning yorkshire composer, conductor, author and music publisher. I recently enjoyed playing the works in "Organ Music for Quiet Moments" and Tim kindly sent me a copy of one of his most recent compositions, the "Partita" for organ.

Score: https://www.timknightmusic.com/product-page/partita-for-organ

Tim says, "This concert piece (or concluding voluntary) was originally going to form the first movement of an Organ Sonata. However, it has become a stand alone piece, rhythmic and exciting in parts, but lyrical in others. The piece is dedicated to a young, talented organist living in America called Liam Lees, as a thank you for providing us with some recordings of our other organ titles."

The sampleset is the new 1961 Aeolian-Skinner in Pasadena Presbyterian Church. I have added a little of Hauptwerk's native reverb. This sampleset, with its clarity and exciting reeds and mixtures, works really well with this exciting little piece.
