| This book stems from the author’s collaboration with Italian music magazines over twenty years. The various items, content ranging from technical and interpretative aspects of the organ to the analysis of specific pieces of some of the most significant composers, are assembled here with the intention of disseminating the complex and fascinating world of the organ, an instrument with a two thousand year history, to a wider public. The simplicity with which the different themes are treated, make this book a useful aid for those who experience the organ, be it as a performer (professional or amateur) or simply through listening.
