James H. Rogers (1857-1940) was an American composer, organist and teacher, represented in the Pristine catalogue by the song At parting, recorded by Kirsten Flagstad in 1952.

Rogers wrote songs, church music and other works suited to recital and liturgical use. His music belongs to the cultivated American vocal tradition of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

His style is lyrical, direct and attentive to text, shaped by the expectations of singers and accompanists rather than by orchestral spectacle. It is music for a room, a voice and a line of poetry.

Though not a major repertory name today, Rogers is securely identified here through a significant historic recital. His page is modest, but properly anchored.
