Samenvatting	"The seventeenth is the greatest of all centuries for the organ and for its literature. Never before or since has this instrument served as such an important medium of musical composition. Such composers as Frescobaldi, Cabanilles, De Grigny, the Couperins, Sweelinck, Scheidemann, Scheidt, Bruhns, Buxtehude, Froberger, and Pachelbel regarded it as their principal outlet for creative expression. In this study, the author first traces the origins of seventeenth-century styles in the keyboard music of the late Renaissance; he then devotes individual chapters to each of the important geographical styles of seventeenth-century organ music. The book's point of orientation is the manner in which each of these styles develops its own unique vocabulary and set of compositional techniques. The ... (Lees verder)text is illustrated by some two hundred musical examples carefully selected to demonstrate each stylistic development. The volume concludes with a selected and annotated bibliography of readily available performances of the entire repertory." --Dust jacket.
