Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A History of Hull Organs and Organists: Together With an Account of the Hull Musical Festivals, and the Formation of the Various Musical Societies in the Town
It has often been asserted, as a reproach against organists generally, that their artistic outlook is apt to be narrow, and that it is too often regarded from the particular aspect of their own instrument. The record of these pages, however, will shew that all the move ments connected with music in Hull - the Musical Festivals, the formation of the various musical societies and other institutions for the advancement of the art have been inaugurated or developed by organists; and whatever interest the book may possess, will perhaps be found in the tale they tell of these efforts.
