Hall, who "credits his early memories of Calvin Hampton as organist and Halloween monster as his first inspiration to pursue a career in the field of organ and sacred music"* here chronicles the short life of the New York organist and composer. This biography, which began as a doctoral essay, has been expanded to include material not previously available. One of the earliest biographers of Hampton, Hall takes advantage of the opportunity to record living impressions and first hand accounts from people who knew the subject best. 978-1-881162-19-3 · 369 pages, paperback *Page 369
