Albert Schweitzer as I knew him

Volume Five in this series is rather different from the other contributions. It is a personal reminiscence by someone who worked with Schweitzer on the completion of the Widor-Schweitzer edition of Bach's organ music. It is a fascinating insight into this talented, dedicated complex life, revealing aspects of both his ministries, organ reformer and missionary medic.
