Organ Recital
Organ Recital
The Westminster Organ Concert Series continues its 43rd season on Friday, April 26, at 7:30 pm, with an organ recital by local organists Alex Johnson, Florence Jowers, Jonathan Schakel, and Jeremy Thompson. The program, entitled “Musica Ensalada,” is an eclectic mix of music from the 17th to the 20th centuries, including works by Bach, Buxtehude, Heredia, Mendelssohn, and Matter. The concert is free and open to the public and will be followed by a reception.
Please note that this concert replaces the recital with Sietze de Vries originally scheduled for April 21.
Westminster Presbyterian Church is located at 400 Rugby Road in Charlottesville. Ample parking is available behind the church, and the sanctuary is wheelchair-accessible.
The Westminster Organ Concert Series was begun in 1980 to share the newly installed all-mechanical baroque-style pipe organ with the community. The organ, built by Taylor & Boody Organbuilders of Staunton, Virginia, has 18 stops and over 1100 pipes.
