You may be interesred to hear that a new organ piece by Jonathan Rees-Williams, "Fantasy on Be still for the presence of the Lord" has just been published by Organist Publications. My copy arrived today. As this is a very popular hymn, a piece based on it is certainly welcome. It is about grade 7-8 standard, and, from my initial play-through today, I think well worth the effort.

Re: Be still for the presence of the Lord
I just looked at Organist Publication's website and could find no sign of this. Where did you find it?

It was reviewed in Laudate, the journal of the Guild of Church Musicians. I happen to know Barry Williams, a director of Organist Publications. If you contact him via the OP website he will give you further details.
