"This selective critical survey of organ literature from Hofhaimer and Paumann to the present day is a useful guide both for the organist seeking repertoire and for the listener looking for brief analyses of organ works encountered in recitals or on record. It has been a standard work in Germany for more than a generation, appearing in five editions. It is now translated into English for the first time. Organists in the English-speaking countries will find the author's continental perspective of particular interest, as he treats fully many significant composers--Hermann Grabner, Willy Burkhard, Günter Raphael, and Joseph Ahrens are only a few examples--whose works are frequently performed in Germany yet remain almost unknown in America and England. This guide may therefore suggest a largely unexplored realm of music written for the classically-oriented instrument that awaits the adventurous organist. The chronological survey of composers treats all of the standard repertoire by familiar composers, and includes as well some works by composers too little known: Johann Ernst Eberlin and Bohuslav Cernohorsky in the 18th century and Gustav Merkel in the 19th are examples. This edition includes addenda on British and American organ music by the well-known American organist Lee Garrett, expanding the scope of Lukas's work. Musical examples show principal themes of selected works, and publishers are listed for each composer."--Dust jacket.

Joseph Jongen And His Organ Music written by John Scott Whiteley and has been published by Pendragon Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1997 with Biography & Autobiography categories.

Joseph Jongen was Director of the Brussels Conservatoire from 1925 to 1939. He was first and foremost a composer and yet his career as an organist and composer of organ music was remarkable. His Sonata Ero�ca has become one of the enduring works of the repertory, and the Symphonie Concertante, commissioned by Rodman Wanamaker for the organ of the Philadelphia store, has been considered the finest of all twentieth-century organ concertos. This is the first book ever to appear about Joseph Jongen in any language. It is based on twenty years of research by its author, John Scott Whiteley. Part I traces Jongen's life and achievements as an organist,from his earliest training in Franck's birthplace, Li�ge, to his exile in England and his final years in Brussels, during which time he headed the team that designed the organ for Belgian Radio. Part II is a guide to the organ music from the points of view of both performer and musicologist. Appendices provide a catalogue of works, a numbering system for his works without opus numbers, specifications of the organs he played and lists of variant readings in his manuscripts. This book is indispensable for serious students of the organ, the Romantic organ repertoire and European music of the early twentieth century.

The pipe organ, an instrument whose origins date to ancient Greece, is prominent in the development of secular and church music, and its builders were as artistic as the composers like Bach, Pachelbel and Handel who played them. This book describes the mechanics, fabrication, and acoustics of all types of pipe organs. Although it is technical in nature, its design, descriptions, and language are directed to organ students, their teachers, and all persons who love the organ. The book covers the construction of several types of pipe organ, with chapters on actions, chests, pipe work, wind supply, electrical circuitry, mechanics, registration, organ placement, acoustics, and repairs.

"This book is a guide to composing for the pipe organ. Many contemporary music commissions come from organists, orchestras (which often employ an organist part-time) and church, cathedral and chapel choirs (where the organ is the main accompanying instrument). However, there are currently very few resources available for composers, and so many organ compositions do not explore the instrument's full potential. This book explains how to write idiomatically for the instrument, both explaining basic notation and demonstrating the extent of organ virtuosity by drawing on organ music from the past 500 years. Through practical analysis of previous repertoire, this composer's guide for the organ shows not only what the organ was, or what it is, but also what it can be"--
