Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Standard Organ Building "Standard Organ Building" is presented as a text-book by which Church Authorities may be aided in negotiating for the purchase of an organ, and is suggestive of important items to be considered in connection therewith. It treats of the essential principles upon which good organ building is founded, but does not give the formulated details which would serve as guides for an amateur to construct his own instrument. Diagrams of the interior mechanism are omitted because each Organ Company have their own methods of producing results, and furnish descriptive catalogues advocating their special claims in connection with artistic illustrations of case designs. Such progress is being made in improved appliances, that the drawings contained in quite recent books on organ construction are comparatively obsolete. "Standard Organ Building" is based upon practical experience and observation, and is concisely written, omitting the history and description of past methods, and treating of the organ as developed up to the present date.

Download or read book The Story of the Organ (Classic Reprint) written by C. F. Abdy Williams and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Organ The object of this little work is to give an outline of the history of that wonderful outcome of human ingenuity and skill known as the organ, from documentary evidence, apart from the vague speculations of Kircher and others. The known history of the organ begins with the machine of Ctesibius, of Alexandria, in which air was forced into a trumpet by the efforts of water to "rise to its own level." In mediaeval times the force of gravity replaced that of water, weights being placed on a bellows, from which the air was thus driven into the pipes with the requisite strength. Speculations as to the nature of the organs mentioned in Genesis and elsewhere in the Scriptures have no bearing on the history of the instrument, for when, during the Reformation, the Bible was translated into various modern languages, the translators, knowing nothing of the instruments there mentioned, simply made use of musical terms familiar to them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reform in Organ Building: A Lecture Delivered to the Birmingham and Midland Musical Guild, 4th February, 1888, S. S. Stratton, Esq., Presiding I speak of the builders generally; but I am bound to admit that in the case of a few I have found some symptoms of divine discontent. It is of such men and such only that ther; is h0pe. The artist who is content is ever on the down gra e. The case then that I would present to you is that by falling back on broad principles, we may blend the organ into one homogenous, sympathetic, controllable entity, and entirely get rid of the present objectionable features and defects. That is my case, but I propose to show not only this but that by adopting this course we may secure greater economy in money and room, and gain enormously in simplicity of build and manipulation. It will be for you to decide whether or not I shall have proved this also. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Newberry Memorial Organ at Yale University: A Study in the History of American Organ Building The development of action in America has been a rapid one. Until the middle of the nineteenth century tracker action and slider chests were used by all American builders, but during the next two decades the principles of pneumatic action were developed and perfected to such an extent that tracker action was definitely supplanted in all but Very small instruments. The first step in this development was the use of a pressure pneumatic to open the pallet of the slider chest. Coupling was still done by the traditional sticker or drumstick mechanism, which was placed beyond the pneumatic so that the key had a uniform resistance. The disadvantages of this action were its sluggishness when couplers were drawn and the inevitable no1se of the trackers. A later refinement was introduced by the invention of the exhaust pneumatic which acted more quickly, since the maximum power of the pneumatic was brought into play when the pallet offered the greatest resist ance - namely, at the attack. One of the earliest American applications of the exhaust pneumatic lever appeared in the Hook and Hastings organ installed in the Cincinnati Music Hall in 1878. The next radical innovation was the invention of the pneumatic chest in which each pipe was supplied with wind by a separate valve. To Roosevelt belongs the credit for establishing this chest in America. The elimination of sliders marked an important advance, for the variable climate made sticking sliders and running pipe wind inevi table in spite of fine workmanship and the best of wood. When first intro duced, the pneumatic chest was built with a ventil stop action, but it was later improved by the use of pitman valves which intercepted the action wind before it reached the pipe Valve pneumatics, but allowed the pipe wind to remain in the chest at all times. The various types of the pneumatic chest were controlled at first by a single tracker key action, but later by a tubular action, and eventually by the electro-pneumatic action that is now all but universal in America. The use of the pitman stop action in conjunction with pipe valves mounted directly under the table marked a considerable advance.

Book Synopsis The Organ and Its Masters by : Henry C. Lahee
Download or read book The Organ and Its Masters written by Henry C. Lahee and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Organ and Its Masters: An Account of the Organists of Former Days, As Well As Some of the Prominent Virtuosi of the Present, With a Brief Sketch of the Development of Organ Construction is written by Henry C. Lahee, American author and musician. Historically the use of the organ was limited to laity and the compositions were primarily sacred. Lahee emphasizes the modern shift towards demand for organ music in the secular tradition and the recent surge in secular organ composition, making this book a much-needed exploration of the past, present and future of the organ. The primary focus of the text is to serve as a thorough biography of noted organists throughout the tradition, from early to modern times; the secondary focus of the book is to provide information on the evolution of organ building and organ playing over the past few centuries. Lahee's passion for the organ as an instrument suited to both secular and sacred works is evident on every page. A very thorough resource, this book supplies readers interested in organs and music with a wellspring of knowledge on the history and use of organs. Henry C. Lahee's book The Organ and Its Masters: An Account of the Organists of Former Days, As Well As Some of the Prominent Virtuosi of the Present, With a Brief Sketch of the Development of Organ Construction is a great addition to the library of any musician. This book gives an in-depth view on the evolution of the organ and shines light on the present-day uses of this instrument. This book is a great read for any student of music, history, or an organist of any level of musical ability.
