The definitive work on the structure and capabilities of the organ
throughout history, presenting a discussion of the organ's wind
collecting and sound-producing portions as well as tuning and pitch
and the individual characteristics of hundreds of organs in
existence in famous cathedrals and elsewhere. The book also
includes details on the structure and capabilities of the organ,
with specifications and suggestive details for instruments of all
sizes, intended as a handbook for the organist and the amateur.
Edward J. Hopkins was Organist to the Honourable Societies of the

The definitive work on the organ throughout history starting with a
documented chronological history of the instrument, especially in
England and Germany. When originally published in 1877 this work
was the introduction to The Organ: Its History and Construction by
Edward J. Hopkins, which has now been published as a separate book
instead of being included in this edition.
Roger North (1651?-1734) was a successful lawyer and skilled
amateur musician who became Attorney General to James II. After the
1688 Revolution he retired from public life and devoted his time to
writing on a wide range of topics. Memoirs of Musick originally
formed the final section of North's 1728 treatise on music theory,
The Musicall Grammarian. It covers aspects of music history (or
'historico-critcall scrapps' as North calls them) from Ancient
Greece to Corelli, and includes a substantial account of John
Jenkins, who taught North the viol. Charles Burney quoted from the
Memoirs in his General History of Music (1776-1789), but this 1846
edition by the musicologist Edward Rimbault was the first time they
appeared in print. The book includes an introduction on the
manuscript of the Memoirs (now in Hereford Cathedral Library), a
short biography of North and extensive explanatory notes to the
text.
