Angela Kraft Cross's career as a church musician, touring recitalist, and teacher has resulted in numerous organ compositions. Five striking works have been selected to form her first published collection. The pieces employ a variety of styles and moods: two in a contemporary style inspired by the classic English trumpet voluntaries, a delightful pastorale, a deeply expressive Kyrie eleison, and the powerful passacaglia Tree of Life inspired by the seasons of the year and our faith. Kraft Cross's stunning writing is sure to make a strong impact in recital or as service voluntaries.

With Rollin Smith’s Lost Pipe Organs of America, the Organ Historical Society celebrates the Golden Age of pipe organ building and beyond. Every facet of American life, not only in worship, but in concert halls, auditoriums, universities, hotels, world’s fairs, and expositions, featured a notable instrument, now lost to history.

Lost Pipe Organs of America range from that of the Boston National Peace Jubilee of 1869; New York’s Chickering, Mendelssohn, and Carnegie Halls; Hotel Astor and Waldorf-Astoria; the E. & G.G. Hook at Louisville’s Southern Exposition of 1883; Chicago’s Steinway Hall and Stadium; auditoriums in Denver, Washington, Detroit, and Chicago; the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition’s Festival Hall, and Lincoln Center’s Philharmonic Hall. A galaxy of America’s organbuilders include Hook, Jardine, Roosevelt, Skinner, Farrand & Votey, Aeolian, Möller, Austin, Estey, Barton, Wurlitzer, and Aeolian-Skinner. Hundreds of illustrations are what you have come to expect, and footnotes are, as usual, not to be missed.

M.P. Möller was the largest organ company in the world and built more pipe organs than any other organ builder in history. Documenting such an enterprise is a formidable task that has been admirably achieved by Bynum Petty, the OHS’s former archivist. This revised and enlarged second edition of his original study of the company, An Organ a Day, traces its beginning in 1854 to its eventual sale in January,1993. A wealth of archival photographs illustrates every facet of the company, including its most important instruments. Many detailed stoplists of the largest organs, a transcript of M.P. Möller’s 1921 diary, and a complete catalogue of Möller Artiste player organ rolls are included. The last of 24 appendixes is a complete Geographical Index of the company’s 11,850 organs.
