I Learn The Organ, by Jerome Faucheur, Editions Chantraine/Theodore Presser Co. (588 N. Gulph Rd., King of Prussia, PA 19406), 2000. 67pp., $27.95. Easy.

Although recent years have seen a welcome increase in the number of beginning organ method books, few may be as concise and succinct as I Learn The Organ. With its multi-language translation (French, English and German) and sparse, yet solid, content, the tiny volume manages to cover all the essentials of manual and pedal technique through a series of twenty-five lessons designed for a single year's study.

The chief asset of Faucheur's writing lies in its avoidance of an overtly detailed, tedious approach, which, all too often, threatens beginning organ methods. Each lesson is neatly presented in one or two pages, giving equal focus to a single area of first manual, then pedal, technique. Lessons ten through twenty-five include a representative selection from literature, although the extraction of several examples from larger works and the partial inclusion of voices in others seem regrettable.
