The organist Nicholas Jackson is also a prolific composer, represented here by works for one or two trumpets and organ, as well as organ solo. The former, brilliantly played by Maurice Murphy and Rod Franks, contain some striking gestures; the latter, performed adeptly by the composer himself at Chartres Cathedral, tend toward note-spinning à la française.
