Fourth volume of Sawa's organ music offers more traditionally formulated pieces, the first three on the list above being bipartite "fantasy and fugue" compositions. The "Canzona", too, closes with a fugue but it has some of the Gallic character of Jehan Alain and "Stained Glass Windows" is also French in its attention to color and sheer beauty of sound. "Regina" agreeably offers a folk-song and two church songs in an atmosphere of simple joy and celebration. Records International
