Beze Improves Church Organ Then Dies in Grace
An 19th century tale recalls Beze the organ tuner who repaired a parish instrument gratis after offering materials, and later improves the organ with a new stop. The story follows his final church appearance, a solemn mass, and his death, with reflections on music, faith, and the crowd’s reaction. It also includes assorted notes on theatre, newspapers, and travel tales from New Orleans to Montgomery.
