Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1888 edition. Excerpt: ... In combination the 4-ft. Spitzflote ranges in point of power between 4-ft. Flute d'Amour and 4-ft. Gemshorn, which stops it sometimes replaces. Stentorphon. See Tuba Mirabilis. Stop Manuals. See Pneumatic Combination Pistons. Stopped Diapason. See Gedackt. Suabile. See Suavial. Suavial, Suabile. A soft-toned stop like Geigenprincipal, often found on old organs as 8-ft. stop beginning at c', as for instance in the French Church at Berne. Sub-Bass (often labelled Bourdon, Grand Bourdon in England). The name of a stop with a 16-ft. or 32-ft. covered pipe. (See Gedackt.) In small organs, where the size of the church does not admit of the 16-ft. open pipe, Sub-Bass is quite indispensable (or even side by side with this). We advise the use of Harmonica Bass (q.v.) with Sub-Bass, if there is a liberal allowance of pedals, which stop, discreetly giving precision to the sombre fullness of the SubBass, is, in such combination, of special value. In large and small organs Sub-Bass forms one of the most essential stops; and even in the smallest instrument a coupler to the first manual should not be deemed a sufficient substitute. From' an acoustic point of view it is worth mentioning that my experience of the character of this stop is that the same note, which may have a tremendous effect in one part of the church, may scarcely be audible a few paces from this spot. This acoustic peculiarity of Sub-Bass (and other tones of lower registers) has therefore caused great trouble to many a builder, and has often made the satisfaction of experts questionable. Prof. Dr. Forster, of Berne, writes to me on this subject: "It would be doing the organ-builder a great injustice if one attributed this phenomenon to a F faulty construction of the instrument. In...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the PREFACE. IN projecting this work two courses appeared to me to be open to adoption. The first, entailing the rigid suppression of all personal opinion, at once commended itself as the orthodox and preferable method of compiling a Dictionary. But having tentatively composed a few sheets within the severe confines of this scheme, it soon became evident that not only would such a mere collection of formidably and monotonously technical details be entirely unacceptable to organists in general, but that, also, unless some means were adopted of criticising the diverse modes of treating various stops, the book would be hopelessly indefinite in the nature of its information. I have therefore selected the second course, and been so far emboldened as to include in the work expressions of personal opinion, and the results of my own heuristic observation. It is, of course, distinctly to be under- stood that these personal opinions are in no sense put forward as ex caihedrâ pronouncements, or as mere dogmatic assertions to be swallowed, so to speak, as a pill. Entirely unconnected as I am with the organ building profession, and having acquainted myself with the work of all the foremost English builders, I have felt entirely at liberty to enlarge the description of various stops, and, thereby, in no small measure to augment the general utility of this work, by unusually copious references to organs in which they find a place. That some names occur more frequently in this connection than others is due, mainly, to the fact that they are those of builders, the particular characteristics and the general modernity and artistic merit of whose work have justly demanded especial notice or comment. It is not possible to be altogether impersonal in a work of this character. But I have not been unmindful of the fact that the possible success of this work must, in no small measure, be dependent upon the degree of impartiality instilled into it. Having adjusted these matters of polity, it remains to review the general scheme of the work. In the first place, every effort has been made to deal fully and practically with modern stops. In occupying one- self so much with details, one is, perhaps, at times, apt to lose sight of principles. I have, nevertheless, attempted, out of the chaotic state to which the modern discoveries seem to have reduced organ tone, to frame a few constructive principles of tonal design, and at any rate to indicate the trend of modern thought. There is but scant merit in destructive criticism, save in so far as it opens the path to a more perfect and complete apprehension of fundamental truth. These matters, however, are discussed more specifically -- and in a somewhat more dégagéstyle than is here fitting -- in a brief and informal brochure issued by the present writer about a year and a half ago, and entitled "Tonal Design in Modern Organ Building."...
