Because it has always represented a rich collaboration of the music, art, architecture, handicraft and science of its day, the organ, more than any other instrument, continues to reflect the spirit of the age in which it was built. This collection of essays, by leading scholars of the organ, follows the history of six organs in Scandinavia and Northern Germany, telling a unique story of the cultural history of northern Europe during the past four centuries. A CD with appropriate repertoire played on each of the six instruments accompanies the book.

Times Literary Supplement This collection of some twenty-five essays does several useful things for both the Connoiseur and the Amateur of Music (to use J.S.Bach's terms'). It describes and illustrates with a CD six conspicuously interesting organs of northern Europe, and it puts them in various contexts, cultural, historical, and musical.
