Dr. Elena Paradies earned her master's degree in Piano from the Lithuanian Music Academy in Lithuania, followed by a master's degree in Organ from the Nizhny Novgorod State Conservatory in Russia. She completed her Doctorate in Organ Performance at the Jacobs School of Music, Indiana University, USA. In the early stages of her career as an organist and educator, she recognized a pressing need for comprehensive resources in organ methodology and literature, critical for professional growth. This electronic book series is her aspiration to consolidate and organize essential knowledge for both organ teachers and novice organists.
