Alan Viner (1951-) born in Gloucester England, began piano
at age 8, and organ at age 13, attended University of Reading
(Honours Degree 1973), Saint Luke's College Exeter (PGCE 1974),
Royal College of Music (ARCM 1976). He was Organist and
Choirmaster (St Mary's Berkeley, St Nicholas's Hardwicke) and
Head/Director of Music at several schools in Hertfordshire,
Gloucester, Shrewsbury. Since 1989 he teaches privately, composes,
accompanies, and since 1997 is member of the Ellesmere College

The "Arietta" presents a pensive melody weaving above and
below independent accompaniment and pedal, while the "Finale"
is a majestic piece of purposeful stride.
