The Wind-Producing Parts of the Church Organ - A Classic Article on the Design and Construction of the Church Organ

“The Wind-Producing Parts of the Church Organ” is a vintage treatise on the inner workings of church organs by Noel A. Bonavia-Hunt. Written in clear, plain language and full of detailed descriptions and explanations, this is a volume that will appeal to modern readers with an interest in the design, construction, and evolution of the pipe organ. Not to be missed by collectors of classic literature of this ilk. Contents include: “The Wind-producing Parts”, “The Bellows”, “The Key Action”, “The Pneumatic Lever”, “The Electro-Pneumatic”, “The Sound-Boards”, “The Key Action”, “The Trunks”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of the organ.
