Book Reviews of The Organists' Manual: Technical Studies and Selected Compositions for the Organ

Book Review: Great church music resource
Summary: 5 Stars

I am a pianist who recently started studying organ to upgrade my skill for playing in church. This is a great resource, with quite a bit of very fine music. As another reviewer stated, it is quite similar in concept to the classic organ method by Gleason, which I also respect and enjoy. But I find the repertoire here more interesting and serviceable than what you will find in the Gleason.

Also contains very fine chapters on registration, articulation and phrasing. An essential resource in my opinion.
