Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Organ in France: A Study of Its Mechanical Construction, Tonal Characteristics and Literature, With Suggestions for the Registration, of French Organ Music Upon American Instruments The relation of these improvements to the previously established conception of the organ as an instrument, and of its legitimate function, it is not my province to discuss. Many believe that the new methods have emancipated the organ from the fetters of mechanical limitations, while others maintain that at least in ex treme cases an essentially new instrument has been evolved, possessing a field of usefulness and demanding an individuality of treatment peculiarly its own. One thing is certain: that under discriminating and skilful direction the new methods adopted in recent years have given our organ-builders of to-day the opportunity to produce work possessing at once such artistic excellence and interesting possibilities as could seldom have been vouchsafed to their predecessors, working under existing limitations. Only the future can determine the exact value of these new methods. When judiciously employed, it is in contestable that they will greatly increase the technical possibilities of the organ. But to prove their artistic as well as their commercial value, they must awaken a corresponding development of musical faculties on the part of executants, and stimulate interest in the organ among musicians and composers. Especially must the latter be inspired to augment a repertoire which is none too rich in modern works of genuine musical importance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Organ in France: A Study of Its Mechanical Construction, Tonal Characteristics and Literature, With Suggestions for the Registration, of French Organ Music Upon American Instruments Probably in no other country have the successive changes in methods of organ construction, during the last quarter of a century, more nearly justified the designation "revolution" than in the United States. At the beginning of this period, making due allowance for the individual methods or characteristics of various builders, practically all organs followed a general standard with regard to character of specification and the purposes for which they were built. Organs designed for concert use were found in some of the largest auditoria, and occasionally in smaller halls; the size of church organs was governed by the proportions of the edifices in which they were placed, and to a certain extent by demands of liturgy or form of worship. A few private residences boasted instruments of more or less importance, yet differing but slightly from the standard established for the types previously mentioned. With the successful introduction of the electro-pneumatic system, it may fairly be said, the course of organ-building entered divergent channels. The new system contained nothing in itself to alter the standard organ of the period in any respect save ease of manipulation. And yet it made possible the successive inventions, whose adoption, to any considerable degree, has produced an instrument of widely different resources from its prototype.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seventeenth and eighteenth centuries witnessed the growth of a unique relationship between the French organ and the music written for it. Until recently, however, the roots of this precise musical tradition lay hidden in the sixteenth century. Illuminating these mysteries for the modern audience, Mr. Douglass has traced the development of the French organ from the sixteenth century through the Classical Period (1655-1770).For the first time in English, an explanation is given of the role of mixtures in the plenum of the French instrument of the Classical Period. Because the plenum determines the very character of the organ, and because the mixtures exert the strongest influence upon its sonority, the reader will be able to understand why French composers were writing music for the plenum sharply different from that of their contemporaries in northern Europe. Especially useful is the first complete compilation of known sources of information about French classical organ restriction. Having assimilated the historical facts about the instrument, the reader will be ready to interpret the music of this period on a modern organ.Mr. Douglass is professor organ at the Oberlin College Conservatory of Music. This authoritative study of the French classical organ is a major source for the interpretation of early French organ music. For this new edition, the author has added a chapter on touch in early French organs and its importance for practice. The bibliography has also been extensively revised. Reviews of the previous edition: "The extensive and valuable materials assembled in this study will make it indispensable to both the performer and the scholar of French organ literature."—Almonte C. Howell, Jr., Notes "The only work of its kind in English. . . . Bringing together all of the sources into one volume was alone a task of considerable proportions, and the many conclusions drawn from a careful study of the sources make it a necessary reference for any further study. It should be not only on the shelves but also in the mind of every organ devotee."—Rudolph Kremer, Journal of the American Musicological Society "Douglass has shown us the way that organ studies ought to develop over the next few decades."—Music and Letters
