Re: hi :)

So happy to see a fellow Chinese person on this
list. Which part of China are you from? I am afraid
that I can't help you find a teacher in most places in
China, the only person I heard of that plays organ is a
harp professor in Beijing. When you are saying small
instrument, does that mean a Yamaha type electone instrument
or something like a Hammond/Allen/Galanti? If you
can find a good beginners manual like Flor Peeters'
"Little Organ Book", John Stainer's "The Art of Organ
Playing" (I seem to recall that's the name, could be wrong
on this one), or Dave N. Johnson's "XXX for
Beginning Church Organists" (I started with this one
myself, but again I fail to recall the proper title). You
can try to teach yourself playing with those. The
problem with playing small spinet style organ is the
limited compass on pedals and stop selection prevents one
from playing larger scaled literature.<br><br>The FAT
Idiot
