Reviews
There is a stream of local, as well as general, wisdom. And it is, importantly, focused not only on technique but also on producing something musical through technique and something which sounds musical to the player. [...] An outstanding achievement. * Francis O'Gorman, Organists Review, December 2020 *
Teachers and performers at every level of attainment should acquire this book without hesitation; it will prove an invaluable and thought-provoking resource. Highly recommended. * Stephen Farr, Choir and Organ, December 2020 *
