PEDAL DIVISION
Often, however, the Pedal is called upon to furnish an inde-
pendent melodic line -- as in much of the contrapuntal works
of the Baroque period (Bach and others).
The Pedal 8' and
4' stops provide the necessary upperwork for these purposes.
The term "Appropriate Pedal" often appears on suggested
registrations.
The suggestion seems obvious at first, but
Pedal stop selection is as much an art as manual selection.
In most organ playing, the Pedal is simply used to provide
the foundation (Bass) for manual work.
The use of 16'
voices provides the subharmonics necessary to undergird the
manual tonal structure.
