Programme note: Impromptu No. 2 in B Minor by English composer Samuel Coleridge-Taylor (1875 – 1912) was first published in 1911 as one of two Impromptus for piano. In 1916 the piece appeared as '2nd Impromptu', transcribed by Arthur Eaglefield-Hull, in the first book of an album of organ versions of Coleridge-Taylor's compositions. Neither the piano or organ version of the B Minor Impromptu has a printed Opus number, and is different to Coleridge-Taylor's Impromptu No. 2 Op.78 which is in C Major and part of a set of three Impromptus for organ, also published in 1911.
