Description
The New Oxford Organ Method is a comprehensive guide to playing the organ, suitable for keyboard players of all ages and skill levels. Each chapter focuses on a single piece of repertoire, with preparatory exercises providing the necessary technical work to build towards the piece. The method covers four main topics: practice methods, registration, fingering and pedalling, and historically-informed interpretation. This approach systematically develops the necessary skills, allowing organists to improve their technique and enhance their performance. The method is designed to be accessible to those establishing first steps at the organ, as well as more experienced players looking to refine their skills. Sheet music binding allows for easy access to the repertoire pieces, making it a valuable resource for organists seeking to expand their repertoire.
