Book Description
Before steam power, elec., and internal combustion, pipe organs were admired as the most complex and intricate mechanisms, save for clocks, that humans had yet devised. Here, Whitney brings to life some of the colorful characters who devoted their lives to its music. From the mid-19th to the early 20th cent., organ music was wildly popular in America, both in concert halls and in homes. Master builders developed organs capable of replicating the sound and dynamic range of entire orchestras. Celebrity organists such as E. Power Biggs and Virgil Fox developed cult followings and bitter rivalries. But from the late 1950s to the 1970s, audiences lost interest in the organ. But today, organs are beginning to make a comeback across America. Illustrations.
