Margot Ann Greenlimb Woolard is an adjunct faculty member in the School of Music at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, director of their Church Organist Training Program, and leader of the Nebraska Church Music Workshops.

This is, of course, a book for all church organists, and for those concerned with a better understanding of historical practice in church music, but it is much more than that; it belongs in the libraries of all who care about the present and future state of congregational singing. Cross Accent This is a very readable translation, and it has been generously provided with notes and references. A facsimile of the German original was published in 1966, but the present volume is the first complete English translation. Music & Letters Woolard demonstrates expansive knowledge of Baroque organ and church music practice and the writers contemporary to Turk...her notes guide the 'stranger' or 'beginner' with comfort...useful not only to performers, musicologists, and specialists in the history of organ playing and building, but to those who study liturgy, history of Christianity, and even German history in the eighteenth century. -- Jeff Bach, Bethany Theological Seminary Religious Studies Review
