organ music

Chapel's grand sound

Organ music is music composed for or performed on a pipe organ or electronic organ.

The term often evokes church settings, where organs have accompanied worship for centuries: The organ music swelled as the bride walked down the aisle.

Organ music also encompasses secular works, from Bach's fugues to the soundtrack accompaniment of silent films.
