Book excerpt: The organ books and part-books used in Durham Cathedral over the centuries form the greatest part of this collection, those from the early seventeenth century being particularly well known and of special interest to music scholars and historians. In addition, instrumental music is significantly represented here in the donations made by Philip Falle (1656-1742) and Richard Fawcett (1714-1782), both prebendaries of the cathedral.
