The Pipe Organ

This book is a practical guide for composers to the pipe organ, showing how the instrument is still relevant for new music today. The book is aimed both at those who have never seen an organ before and experienced composers who want a detailed breakdown of what the instrument can do. It draws on musical examples spanning 400 years, particularly focussing on music by contemporary composers. A separate companion website also provides extra content such as video demonstrations of the organ, printable material for educational use and regularly updated links to further resources.
