Product description: The principles of technique and interpretation presented in this book are based on the author’s 35 years of experience teaching organ at the Eastman School of Music. This fifth edition represents a complete rewriting of the text and a revision of all of the manual and pedal exercises. New compositions for manuals and pedal have been added and some of the works in the earlier editions have been omitted. The sections on the organ and registration have been considerably expanded and a section on style and interpretation has been added.
