Sight-read the Pedals!: Eighty pieces for organ sight reading plus pedal studies

First, studies for pedal solo; then exercises specifically for the left-hand and pedals; third, a group of arpeggio- and scale-based studies; fourth, a series of one-bar 'repetition drills' (one corresponding to each of the first 24 pieces in the main section). Finally, to balance things up, there is a warm-up exercise for the fingers
