FROMf THE PREFACE. "Although this little work is chiefly addressed to young com-

posers and organists, there are occasions when more experienced musicians may perhaps find it of some utility. Extemporaneous 'interludes,' for example, demand considerable self-possession, and the most skilful organist is liable, from indisposition and other causes, to accidents which could hardly occur if the means were before his eyes of instant extrication from any key to which he had wandered."
