Synopsis

Excerpt from A Primer of Organ Registration

In preparing this Primer of Organ Registration for the use of teachers and pupils, the author has been led in his work by the realization of two important facts: first, that the potential organist is greatly in need of help in grasping the principles of registration; second, that it is an utter physical impossibility to formulate rules which will be operative in enough cases to justify their own existence!

The first point is enlarged upon in the Brief Survey with which this work begins. A word on the second point may not be inappropriate.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a practical and accessible guide to the art of organ registration, a vital skill for aspiring organists. The author recognizes the often-overlooked importance of this subject, acknowledging the tendency for students to focus solely on technical proficiency at the expense of understanding how to effectively control and blend the instrument's various tones. In an era when organ design and construction exhibited vast variability, the author eschews rigid rules and instead emphasizes the principles of observation, experimentation, and self-criticism. The book systematically guides readers through the intricacies of organ stops and their characteristics, helping them to develop a keen ear for tone color and to understand how different stops can be combined to create a wide range of effects. The book's approach is based on the idea that organ registration is not merely about achieving a desired sound but also about cultivating a deep understanding of the instrument's capabilities. The author encourages readers to actively engage with the organ, to experiment with different combinations of stops, and to develop their own creative sensibilities as tonal artists. This book provides a foundational framework for developing a mastery of organ registration, enabling aspiring organists to fully harness the expressive potential of the King of Instruments. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330354902_0
