Presenting a fresh approach to French organ music, David Ponsford analyses the repertory from the reign of Louis XIV by genre. The colourful French organ was so consistent in design that the very titles of pieces that were constituent parts of organ masses, Magnificats and suites prescribed the registrations: plein jeu, fugue, duo, récit, trio, fond d'orgue and grand jeu. Particular examples from published livres d'orgue and important manuscript collections are analysed chronologically, so that influences from Italian as well as French sacred and secular music can be traced. This analysis reveals the dynamic development of compositional styles in which each composer developed, modified or reacted against the exemplars of his predecessors. Composers discussed include Louis Couperin, François Couperin, Raison, Clérambault and Marchand. The reader will gain an enhanced understanding of performance practices such as notes inégales, fingering and ornamentation, and the influence of French composers on J. S. Bach.

Dave and his puppy, Dusty, are best friends who love to fish. As they embark on an adventure around America, they begin fishing in some of their favorite spots.

By Mississippi ponds, Dave and Dusty go cane pole fishing for catfish while sucking on blades of grass and listening to the cicada sing. Alongside Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire, the pair patrol the shore and cast crank bait lures in search of hungry bass. While sharing the banks of the Kenai River in Alaska with gigantic brown bears, Dave and Dusty try to entice a king salmon onto their hooks. From the Boundary Waters of Minnesota to the lava rocks of Hawaii, Dave and Dusty are having the fishing adventure of a lifetime!

The Adventures of Dave and Dusty tells a tale of a boy and his puppy as they fish their way across America, enjoy the great outdoors, and follow their streams.
