The Organs of the City of London: from the Restoration to the Present
By Nicholas M. Plumley
This important work, the result of many years of painstaking research, begins with a full historical introduction, which sets the City organs in an historical, musical and architectural context. Accounts are then given of each organ gracing the City today, together with photographs and specifications. This is followed by the second section which is devoted to descriptions of the organs known once to have existed in the City, together with details of their present condition and locations. The book is illustrated throughout with photographs, many of them historic, depicting organs in the churches within the City’s famed square mile.
