LibGuides: Organ Music: Home

Welcome to the Organ Research Guide! Here you will find Libraries and online resources on the organ intended for study as well as appreciation. At Find Books, learn strategies for finding books in OneSearch and scroll through recommended books about the organ, its history, famous performers, and repertoire. At Find Scores, see locations for organ music on library shelves and search for notable works by selected composers. Finally, at Historical Keyboards, find resources on historical organs, pianos, harpsichords, clavichords, and other keyboard instruments. Know of a resource not included in this guide?
