Craig Sellar Lang 13 May 1891 24 Nov 1971 was a New Zealand born, British domiciled organist, music teacher, and composer. Born in Hastings, New Zealand Hastings , New Zealand , Dr. C. S. Lang as he is generally known was educated at Clifton College , and studied with Sir Charles Villiers Stanford at the Royal College of Music . He then worked as Director of Music at Christ s Hospital school in Horsham , West Sussex , from 1929, where the choristers of Westminster Abbey were briefly evacuated to during the Second World War. Lang resigned from this post in 1945 in order to devote more time to examining and composition. His choral music includes service settings such as the Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis in B flat , Op.16 , and anthems such as He shall give his angels charge over thee 1941 . There are also many anthems for trebles voices, composed for use at Christ s Hospital, as well as numerous secular choral works. Lang s best known work is his Tuba Tune for organ, Opus 15, a favourite of recitalists. This dashing little piece, which owes its title to the boisterous melody sounded forth on the organ s tuba stop, begins in the style of George Frideric Handel Handel but, in its central section, has some brief key changes that could belong to no century except the 20th. Lang s numerous other works for organ include a lengthy Sonata in D minor Op. 47, 1947 , the Introduction and Passacaglia in A minor Op.51, 1952 , the Fugue Trilogy on E.G.B . Op. 58, 1952 , and many hymn preludes and sets of preludes and fugues. Lang s instructional works, aimed at students, were highly influential.
