Rochester Celebrity Organ Recital Series

The Rochester Chapter of the American Guild of Organists, together with the Eastman School of Music, WXXI, and area churches, has established a recital series featuring the virtuosos of our time. Our collective goal is to invite artists who are performers of the highest caliber who will enrich the lives of community members with their recitals and master classes.

Rochester has established itself as one of the premiere organ centers in the nation, with its wealth of quality instruments, educational prowess, and active community support.   This series now takes Rochester to a new level; we hope you will be a part of this exciting new endeavor!

The 2010 - 2011 Series includes performances by three AMAZING artists.  Mark your calendars now, and start alerting your friends and colleagues of this absolutely star-studded season!
