William Boyce is considered one of the most significant composers of the late English Baroque period. The London-based composer, honored with the title "Master of the King's Music," left behind an extensive catalog of sacred and secular works.

Among the highlights of his instrumental compositions are overtures and symphonies. These primarily contain short movements that are ideally suited for organ adaptation. Martin Setchell has selected the most beautiful pieces from this collection and transcribed them for organ with great sensitivity to organistic practice and in a technically simple manner. They are ideally suited for liturgical use: as preludes and postludes, as well as for meditative moments in the liturgy.
