The organ work of Jehan Titelouze has considerable meaning in developement of organ music in France. His two books: Hymnes de l’Eglise pour toucher sur l’orgue, avec les fugues et recherches sur leur plain-chant (1623) and Le Magnificat, ou cantique de la Vierge pour toucher sur l’orgue, suivant les huit tons de l’Eglise (1626) are a great testimony of french organ music at the beginnig of XVIIth century. Titelouze is considered both a traditionalist and an innovator. His organ style is firmly rooted in the structures and the compositional techniques of the renaissance polyphony. The significant inspiration for Titelouze was a new invented type of organ. Composer in a conscious way used its technical and sound possibilities for create new stuctures with diligent counterpoint, organ ornamentation and the linear stucture.
