A Handbook of the Organ, written by John Matthews and first published in 1897, is a comprehensive guide to the history, construction, and playing of the organ. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the history of the organ, from its origins in ancient Greece and Rome to its development in the Middle Ages and Renaissance, and its evolution into the modern instrument. The second part focuses on the construction of the organ, including the various components such as the pipes, bellows, and keyboard. The third part is a practical guide to playing the organ, with detailed instructions on technique, registration, and interpretation. Throughout the book, Matthews provides numerous illustrations and diagrams to help readers understand the complex workings of the organ. A Handbook of the Organ is an invaluable resource for organists, music scholars, and anyone interested in the history and mechanics of this magnificent instrument.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
