This is the first printing of
Variations on Veni Creator
Spiritus (1991) by Allan
Ontko on sturdy, acid-free paper. 9 pages. This tune is known
by most Christian congregations. I have included notes on the origins
of the chant and explanations of some of the terms involved in French Classic
organ music, from which this piece draws inspiration. Highest quality guaranteed.
Size of music is
9.5" x 12.5". $8.00.
Allan J Ontko (b 1947) attended Westminster Choir College and studied organ with teachers such as Charles Dodsley Walker, Mary Krimmel,
George Markey, and William Whitehead. He studied composition with Warren Martin and David Stanley York. He is an accomplished
organ builder and has maintained several notable organs, including the IV/58 Wurlitzer theatre pipe organ at Radio City Music Hall, New York City.
I have known Allan for many years, and he strives for the best in everything he does. Overall,
Variations on Veni Creator Spiritus
is moderate with a few spots of technical challenge.
