Dudley Buck (1839-1909), a contemporary of Eugene Thayer and John Knowles Paine, was one of the early American organ virtuosi who composed many works for the organ. Home, Sweet Home, copyrighted in 1880, was part of a series called “The Great Organ in Plymouth Church,” and Buck dedicated th piece to William H Johnson, the organ builder. Buck’s treatment surely sounds like it was from the 1860s and retains the mildness and warmth of the original melody. Is there anyone who would not recognize this tune? Easy.
