Theophil Otto Frederick Charles Wendt (1874–1951) was born in London and studied in England and Germany.
In 1896, he moved to South Africa to teach music and piano, and he worked there for most of his life. This “Song of Love”
was originally written for piano and published in 1905, the same year as the organ and cello versions. This organ transcription
gives you the chance to show off your beautiful solo stops.
Alfred Herbert Brewer was born in Gloucester, England, on June 21, 1865. He was highly educated and well-trained in
music. He studied organ with such teachers as Charles Villiers Stanford, he won scholarships, he earned multiple degrees, he was awarded
Hon.R.A.M. and F.R.C.O, and was knighted by the king. He was a well-rounded musician who was able to bring orchestral favorites to the
organ in transcriptions that are approachable and always easier to play than those by other well-known organists such as Edwin Lemare.
Cantique d’Amour is moderately easy.
