This volume offers five-to eight-year old children the opportunity to perform very simple ensemble music for two and three players.Pieces are arranged in a progressive order and are based on a range of maximum five notes. Using different areas of the keyboard helps to prevent the monotony which may be present in the first stages of the learning process, when young students are confronted with music which often deals with the same notes, those which are simpler to read. Pieces are written in the better-known area of the keyboard: the teacher will first familiarize students with the notes, and then proceed to move their hands to the octave indicated by a black dot at the beginning of each piece, explaining the reason for this artifice.

Now finally in English too: The third part of the organ method Historical Performance Practice in Organ Playing follows on from part two with contributions by Guy Bovet (on Jehan Alain), Hans-Ola Ericsson, Anders Ekenberg, Markus Rupprecht (Olivier Messiaen), Hans Fagius (Maurice Durufle), Jeremy Filsell (Marcel Dupre), Bernhard Haas (Arnold Schonberg, Ernst Krenek, John Cage, Gyorgy Ligeti, and others, plus the latest developments) and Armin Schoof (neoclassicism). As in the first two parts of the organ method, here too a representative selection of composers is discussed. Alongside mainly personal recollections (e.g. from Hans Fagius) there are analytical essays (including by Jeremy Filsell). Bernhard Haas has organised one section of his text as an introduction to the playing techniques and aesthetics of new music, beginning with pieces which are easy to play. This English edition contains new chapters by Kevin Bowyer (The Development of New Organ Music in Britain / Contemporary Organ Music in North America). Laukvik's organ method Historical Performance Practice in Organ Playing has now become established as a standard work. It is aimed at organists who want to incorporate the latest thinking on historical performance practice into their interpretations of works. The three volumes provide a practical introduction in a detailed, scholarly and comprehensible form, by giving organists as precise a picture of the interpretative traditions and aims of previous and modern/ contemporary eras as possible. The editions are aimed not only at organists, but also at organ teachers who are looking for a manual to use in their teaching.
