Landon, himself a theatre pipe organist, has written the first history of the theatre pipe organ. He traces its development from church organ to a theatrical instrument that took the place of a piano. Landon also discusses the pipe organ's later emergence as a solo instrument, its use in radio broadcasting and phonograph records, and its present uses. The book also includes a history of those companies that built theatre organs and biographical sketches of some of the leading theatre organists. The appendixes list theatre organ installations around the world.","brand":"Praeger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44231385514239,"sku":"9780313238277","price":147.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/getimage_399c6899-2707-490d-862a-b345422c1b36.jpg?v=1710656898","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780313238277","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
