History of the Organ: From Latin Origins to Modern Age



First 2 disks are great
I bought this for my partner. And he says the first 2 disks are all about the history. And the rest are nothing but people playing different types of organs. Only enjoyed the first 2. If they van just divide the set up they may do better

History, not really
I must say I was so excited to receive the Dvd's "History of the Organ" How disappointed I am now that I've seen them. There's not much displayed as far as history goes. Most of the 221 minutes is of film of various organist performing pieces from the organ literature on historic instruments. A treatise on Organ History this does not make. If you are really looking to learn about the history of Pipe Organs I guess it's only to be found in books. There are some great ones! If you just want to watch film of people playing historic instruments, this is for you. On a positive note, the filming is professional and the audio as well. I expected more.
