AUSTRALIA�S GREAT TROVE of unaltered 19th- century organs (the largest group of them in the world by far) are densely concentrated in the state of New South Wales and its city of Sydney. Here, some 260 instruments have been designated by the state as historically important. Imported from England, Germany and other countries, or built by native artisans, most remain unaltered. This handsome and lavishly illustrated book gathers the histories of hundreds of organs and their builders and players, tracing the development of the organ in Australia, 1791-1940. Approximately 8x11 inches, 480 pages, hardbound, |
