The Organ Works of Marcel Dupré
Graham Steed
Pendragon Press
ISBN 1 57647 007 5
£50
The book is described as a 'performing manual for organists', but it also includes much personal, anecdotal information about the composer that brings him to life. The work describes in chronological / opus number order all Dupré's organ music, with valuable lists and comments on interpretation. Some key organs are described in an appendix and there are quotations from Dupré about organ playing.
