Joseph W. Clokey: Organ Workspad
NEW! Janet Hamilton plays. The organ music of Joseph W. Clokey, Jr. (1890-1960) is skillfully written but reveals a transcendent quality made possible by his midwest upbringing and his love of California. Clokey is in the lineage of Buck, Paine, and Chadwick and as much a part of our distinctive American heritage as Foster and Gershwin. Janet Hamilton brings the music to life on Aeolian-Skinner (1942) and E. M. Skinner (1930) organs near Louisville, Kentucky.
