If in the early seventh century travellers had crossed Christendom from Iona in Scotland to Basra on the Persian gulf, they would not have seen organs in churches anywhere. Half a millennium later, they would have come across organs in one area only: the north-west corner of a circle radiating from Rome and stretching as far north as the English Wash. This book unravels the mystery of why organs were first known in places like Winchester, Rheims and Cologne, far from the centres of culture in the eastern mediterranean. This book--part history of music, part detective story--reveals much, not only about the story of how the organ came to be so enthusiastically embraced as 'the king of instruments', in Mozart's phrase, but about the development of Christianity in Europe.

The organ is the largest instrument with the largest repertory and the greatest influence on Western music's unique evolution. But what is its origin? Who first made it, when, where, how? Why was it introduced in churches? What gradually led to the vast world of organ music? Is the keyboard itself not one of the West's greatest inventions? This newly-revised book by Peter Williams reviews what is known and speculated about this fascinating topic, drawing on a large number of interdisciplinary sources to suggest some answers and underlines the significance (in the words of an early scribe) of the "instrument of instruments."--Publisher description.
