Event Description

"We continue our exploration of the amazing repertoire for organ and orchestra with some extra brass for even more impact. With a trio of the best organ soloists from our region, we’ll deliver three great works that will leave you asking, 'Where has this music been all my life?' Rachel Laurin’s Organ Concerto figures very prominently, as Laurin’s organ pieces for children won the international competition for compositions for 2-octave organ, which young musicians can build and play as part of the 'Pedals, Pipes & Pizza' event in conjunction with this banner weekend."

RACHEL LAURIN: Concerto in D Major for Organ, Strings & Timpani, Carol Wilson, organ
FRANZ SCHMIDT: Fuga Solemnis for Organ, Brass & Percussion, Dr. Zahari Metchkov, organ
HORATIO PARKER: Organ Concerto in E-flat, op. 55, Dr. Joseph Galema, organ
