At Sir Hubert Parry's funeral in St Paul's Cathedral on October 16th 1918, a few of his friends made a small wreath of melodies, which were woven together and played.
The pieces in this book have been written and given by these friends and a few besides, as a rather larger wreath, in loving memory of him.
The title of the book was suggested by the original heading on his own piece (which stands as the first of them): "For the Little Organ Book". (1924)
