Drawing from over 250 years of evolving American hymnody, John Dixon has curated a diverse series of 12 organ settings that capture the essence of this rich heritage. Featuring a variety of tunes, half of which are rooted in 19th-century folk hymn tradition and the remainder hailing from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these settings are designed to inspire, uplift, and console.
