Когда готовился к лекции по электронным музыкальным инструментам,...

When I was preparing for a lecture on electronic musical instruments, I fiercely searched the Internet for an example of the disposition of an organ in one of the Petersburg halls, in particular the Philharmonic. Late I realized that the information is on the website of the company-restorer. But while I was searching, I remembered the encyclopedia “Russian Organs” once seen in the Book House. Thought to go to the store, and look at the desired page. I went to their site - but the book is gone. Then, with a fright, I found the cheapest option in an online store and ordered just in case.

And yesterday the book came to the point of issue. And I don’t know whether to buy it or not. It stands in SetBook.ru, unlike Ozone, only 900 p. And I give the link to Ozone, because there are pictures. In the book itself, by the way, some photographs of the organs are simply terrible. It is understandable: it is not so easy to collect from all over the country. Probably need to go buy. For example, you know that the organ established after the revolution in the Philharmonic was created for the hall of the Institute of Obstetrics and Gynecology named after D. Otta, what explains its insufficient (according to some) power for this hall? Although you can read about it on the Internet (but the organ’s history is not given on the new Philharmonic’s website, only in the old version still available).
