Book Synopsis Playing the Church Organ - by : Noel Jones
Download or read book Playing the Church Organ - written by Noel Jones and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-08-25 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a pianist or organist new to playing the organ.This book has been written for the pianist who has never played an organ or an organist unfamiliar with the Roland, Rodgers or Infinity organs, but may be used by an experienced organist as well. Designed to be used for self-teaching but also useful when studying with a teacher.The Playing the Church Organ series is also useful for the experienced organist as it quickly introduces you to using all the stops on the organ, ones named on the stop tablets or drawknobs, and all that are waiting inside for you to call on them to more perfectly match the stops you choose to the music you are playing.This innovative teaching system works backwards - the goal is not to teach you all about playing the organ, it's to get you playing the organ with confidence and sounding professional from the first day you play, even if you have never had an organ lesson and just know how to play piano or a keyboard.Technique:We achieve this by starting you off with preset sounds, just as a teacher does, but here you control them yourself, right from the beginning. All that you need to learn to get started are three things:• Pressing Piston Buttons.When you press a piston button, the organ is ready for you to play. We have picked music for you that only uses the keyboards. This isn't simplified music - there has been a lot of organ music written for organs without pedals - in fact, even during the time of Handel, many organs only had keyboards. You will find the number of the piston to push at the top of the music - then you just begin to play. • Which Keyboard to Play?We mark every piece for you so you know which keyboard you [play.• The Expression Pedal Sets the Volume.You'll be surprised when you find out that the organ is not as difficult as you are able to focus more on playing the notes instead of also making them loud or soft or somewhere in between. • What happens then?“But...do I have to play the pedals?” You will find organ music written without pedals in books 1-4 that is easy to medium difficulty. As you play through the music you will be using 10 preset sound combinations that are enough to play services, including weddings and memorial services. This book also hows you how to use the Bass Coupler to play the pedals for you automatically on some of the music - we do this to get you excited and interested in playing them yourself.• This first book contains 33 pieces of useful music for you to enjoy playing the voices you are learning about. • The first four books in this series are a complete course in music for the organ, as well as exploring the stops of the organ.• Careful attention to encouraging you through lots of interesting music that is playable and that your congregation will appreciate. • These books may be used with or without a teacher.• Book 13 - A Playing Guide to the Roland, Rodgers and Infinity Organs is a good companion guide to this series qof instruments.

Book Synopsis Playing the Church Organ - Book 13 by : Noel Jones
Download or read book Playing the Church Organ - Book 13 written by Noel Jones and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-01-23 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questions you have now and questions that might come to you while getting comfortable playing these organs are answered here in plain language.Each of these organs is played like other organs. It also has its own controls and devices that reflect the forward thinking of Rodgers, the first to use a computer in an organ, the first to successfuly combine organ pipes in an electronic, and now digital, organ. Rodgers is the rare company today that has built pipe organs, including the 13th largest pipe organ in the world, and digital organs.The organ display window is a window into a library of organ stops that are ready, like a dictionary or a thesaurus of organ stops, to give you the sound that you need for the piece that you are playing.This book concentrates on working through the organ controls and features not by telling you what they are but by showing you how to use them and what they can do for you.We write these books after meeting with people who are new to the organs and spending time helping them get started. Based on our notes from those sessions, we then build the books. For the first time, we have then invited owners of these organs to review what we've written and this has been extremely helpful when doing the final drafts. Their help has improved this book and we are very grateful.The index to the book lists all that is covered, from using the transposer, selecting stops, using the usual couplers and the unusual - Bass & Melody couplers - as well as working with multiple memory levels and the PREV and NEXT controls which can be assignable. Since this is about playing the organ, you will also find music for the organ to play that helps explain the features.Careful attention is given to the differences between the organs. The current design of these organs which shares the same tonal generation system through all of them makes covering all the organs in teh same books possible.Nothing makes us happier than hearing from organists, especially those new to playing the organ, as they tell us how our books have helped them as musicians in their playing of the organ.• Clear, concise explanations of operation of the controls on the organ and practical advice on their use.• This book covers operation of these organs. The first four books in this series are a complete course in organ registration on the Roland, Rodgers and Infinity Organs, exploring the stops, the Voice Palette stops and the USER & Library Access stops.• Frog Music Press brings with it more than 10 years experience in creating guides to Rodgers Organs as well as more many years experience working in church music in the USA, Germany and Italy.
Book Synopsis Organ-building in Georgian and Victorian England by : Nicholas Thistlethwaite
Download or read book Organ-building in Georgian and Victorian England written by Nicholas Thistlethwaite and published by Music in Britain. This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Established for the building of keyboard instruments, by the mid-1790s the workshop of brothers Robert and William Gray had become one of the leading organ-makers in London, with instruments in St Paul's, Covent Garden and St Martin-in-the-Fields. Under William's son John Gray, the firm built some of the largest English organs of the 1820s and 1830s, as well as exporting major instruments to Boston and Charleston in the United States. In the early 1840s, with the marriage of John Gray's daughter to Frederick Davison - a member of the circle of Bach-enthusiasts around the composer Samuel Wesley - the firm became 'Gray & Davison'. Davison was a progressive figure who reformed workshop practices, commissioned a purpose-built organ factory in Euston Road and opened a branch workshop in Liverpool to exploit the booming market for church organs in Lancashire and the north-west. Under Davison's management, the firm was responsible for significant mechanical and musical innovations, especially in the design of concert organs. Instruments such as those built in the 1850s for Glasgow City Hall, the Crystal Palace and Leeds Town Hall were heavily influenced by contemporary French practice; they were designed to perform a repertoire dominated by orchestral transcriptions. Many of the instruments made by the firm have been lost or altered; but the surviving organs in St Anne, Limehouse (1851), Usk Parish Church (1861) and Clumber Chapel (1889) testify to the quality and importance of Gray & Davison's work. This book charts the firm's history from its foundation in 1772 to Frederick Davison's death in 1889. At the same time, it describes changes in musical taste and liturgical use and explores such topics as provincial music festivals, the town hall organ, domestic music-making and popular entertainment, the building of churches and the impact on church music of the Evangelical and Tractarian movements. It will appeal to organ aficionados interested in the evolution of the English organ in the later Georgian and Victorian eras, as well as other music scholars and cultural historians. NICHOLAS THISTLETHWAITE has written extensively on the history of the English organ and other aspects of English church music, and his book, The making of the Victorian organ (1990) is recognised as the standard work on the subject. He has acted as consultant for the restoration and rebuilding of organs, most recently at St Edmundsbury Cathedral and Christ Church
