Postlude on the Lourdes Hymn (Op. 46, No. 6) – Joseph McGrath


Joseph J. McGrath (1889-1968) was an American composer, particularly of sacred and religious music. A Fellow of the American Guild of Organists, he was Organist and Choir Master of the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Syracuse, New York for 40 years. He was a teacher of harmony and composition at Syracuse University and a lecturer at the Catholic University Summer School. I recorded this piece at St. Patrick’s Albury and many thanks to @DCTOnline for bringing this piece to my attention—I love it!
