Bag om A Handbook Of The Organ (1897)
A Handbook of the Organ, written by John Matthews and originally published in 1897, is a comprehensive guide to the history, construction, and playing techniques of the pipe organ. The book is divided into three main sections: the first covers the history of the organ, including its origins and development throughout the centuries; the second delves into the technical aspects of organ construction, from the materials used to the different types of pipes and stops; and the third provides practical advice for organists, including tips on registration, fingering, and pedal technique. The book is filled with illustrations and diagrams to help readers understand the complex workings of the organ, making it an essential resource for anyone interested in learning more about this fascinating instrument. Despite its age, A Handbook of the Organ remains a valuable reference for organists and music scholars alike, offering a wealth of information on a subject that has fascinated musicians for centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
