To have all of the [Oxford Hymns Settings] volumes in your hands would be to possess the entire church year . . . I was also very impressed with the music itself; and while I liked some pieces better than others, virtually all had something new to say . . . Several pieces were short and straightforward enough that I thought they would make wonderful hymn introductions . . . the publication is a valuable resource for church organists. The difficulty level is mostly between easy and medium, but well within the reach of most organists with a little work.
