| Summary | "The Recent Revolution in Organ Building" by George Laing Miller is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work provides a comprehensive analysis of the advancements and developments in organ construction, with a focus on the modern changes introduced over the last fifty years. The book delves into technical details and provides insights useful for organists, builders, and church decision-makers considering the installation or refurbishment of pipe organs. At the start of the book, the author establishes a context for the ongoing transformation in organ building by recounting a humorous anecdote about a church committee deliberating on organ specifications. Miller aims to assist readers who face the daunting task of understanding organ mechanisms and making informed decisions about purchases. He emphasizes the significance of recent advancements in organ technology and mechanics and introduces the key figures and inventions that have contributed to this revolution, setting the stage for a deeper exploration into organ design and functionality in the following chapters.
