We will explore the remarkable history, technology and music of the pipe organ, from its invention in the third century B.C. to its role as both the “king of instruments” and the “instrument of kings.” We will trace its development from the early hydraulis and medieval Blockwerk to Bach’s instruments and the famous Wanamaker Organ. We will listen to organ music from the 14th century to today, with special attention to Baroque and Romantic works.
