About the Author
Peter Hurford was born in Minehead, Somerset, and studied initially with Harold Darke. He read both music and law at Jesus College, Cambridge University, subsequently obtaining an enviable reputation for both musical scholarship and organ playing. Hurford was appointed organist and choirmaster at St Albans Cathedral in 1958, serving with great distinction in this capacity for twenty years. As well as an organist, he is also renowned as a composer of organ works and choral pieces. Mostly dating from his St. Albans years, some of them are flowingly lyrical while others are joyously animated. All reflect Hurford's skill and inclinations as an improviser.
