Organ-Stops And Their Artistic Registration is a comprehensive guide to the art of registering an organ, written by George Ashdown Audsley and first published in 1921. The book is a detailed exploration of the different types of organ stops, their construction, and the various ways in which they can be combined to create a wide range of tonal effects. The author begins by discussing the basic principles of organ tone production, including the use of pipes, reeds, and other sound-producing mechanisms. He then goes on to describe in detail the different types of stops, including diapasons, flutes, strings, reeds, mixtures, mutations, and couplers. Each stop is explained in terms of its construction, tone quality, and potential for artistic use. The second part of the book is devoted to the art of registration, or the skill of combining stops to create a desired tonal effect. Audsley provides numerous examples of successful registrations, along with detailed explanations of the principles behind them. He also discusses the importance of balance, clarity, and expression in registration, and provides practical advice for achieving these qualities in performance. Overall, Organ-Stops And Their Artistic Registration is an essential resource for anyone interested in the art of organ playing and registration. It is a detailed and authoritative guide to the construction and use of organ stops, and provides valuable insights into the art of creating beautiful and expressive music on the organ.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
