Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 2nd Edition. Jacket in Brodart for preservation. 'Thoroughly revised, updated, and expanded, here is the new edition of the definitive guide to the stops of the pipe organ. Incorporating new material reflecting the technical and stylistic changes that have occurred since the previous edition was published 20 years ago, [the author] provides organists with essential information about hundreds of stops, both common and uncommon. From the 32' diapason to the 1' piccolo, here are concise, detailed entries, arranged in alphabetical order, that cover a complete range of fundamental topics: pitch, construction, and the specific tonal qualities of each stop. Each entry also contains information on the names, family, and the system of indicating pitches for each stop, as well as on the acoustics of pipe organs, harmonic structures, voicing, and mixtures. With this handbook, organists have at their disposal a wealth of basic facts about virtually every stop-name on every kind of pipe organ. Covering all families of stops, this new edition contains such material not easily found elsewhere, including extended coverage of Baroque and theater organs, as well as a greatly increased number of charts and technical appendixes.' Illustrated. xx+422 pages. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Book.
