This is book I of "The Organ Student's Gradus Ad Parnassum", containing a detailed guide to organ interpretation. "Interpretation" refers to the arranging of sounds in time so as to produce a continuous, unified, and evocative composition, as through melody, harmony, rhythm, and timbre. This guide is perfect for those with little of no previous experience, and it would make for a fantastic addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "General Backgrounds", "Tempo", "Meter and Tempo", "In Common Meter", "In Alla Breve Meter", Tempo Rubato", "Rhythmic Conventions", "Even and Dotted Rhythms", "Dotted Rhythms", "Binary And Ternary Rhythms Combined", "Articulation and Phrasing", "Accent", "Dynamics", "Terraced and Inclined Designs", "The Cumulative Crescendo", "Ornamentation", "On Ornaments in General", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of the organ.
