May4

Rescheduled from my COVID-defined 2020-21 season! I'm so pleased to be able to play this glorious Casavant organ.

As the world is slowly recovering from the effects of the global pandemic, one lesson to take forward is that to freely take a breath, and then to speak or to break into song, is truly something to treasure. This program, titled "Joining Voices," celebrates the many diverse voices of this glorious Casavant organ and the beautiful diversity of the human community.

Planned repertoire includes:

CHARLES-MARIE WIDOR (1844-1937): Intermezzo from Symphony No. 6 for Organ

LOUIS VIERNE (1870-1937): Berceuse (Lullaby)

CHARLES FRANÇOIS GOUNOD (1818-1893): Marche funébre d'une marionette (Funeral March of a Marionette)

JEHAN ALAIN (1911-1940): Variations sur un Thème de Clément Jannequin (Variations on a theme by Clément Jannequin)

ALAIN: Postlude pour l'office de Complies (Postlude for Compline)

ALAIN: Litanies

MAURICE DURUFLÉ (1902-1986): Prélude et Fugue sue le nom d'ALAIN (Prelude and Fugue on the Name ALAIN)

PAUL AYRES (b. 1970): Intermezzo from Suite for Eric

MARY BETH BENNETT (b. 1954): Hommage à Langlais: Song of Peace in a Time of War

JOSEPH BONNET (1884-1944): Variations de Concert (Concert Variations), Op. 1
