The New Oxford Organ Method cover

A single piece of repertoire is the primary focus for each chapter, with preparatory exercises providing the necessary technical work building towards the piece. Each lesson covers four main topics, which are systematically developed: practice methods, registration, fingering and pedalling, and historically-informed interpretation. The method is for keyboard players of any age who are establishing first steps at the organ with or without a teacher. It will also serve more experienced organists who want to improve their technique.

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 *
