Jan Kraybill solo organ concert: "A World of Wonders"
St. Cornelius Episcopal Church, 200 W Spruce St, Dodge City, KS 67801
I played the dedicatory concert for this gem of a Casavant pipe organ in this historic western Kansas church in 2019 and have been delighted to be invited to return for annual performances ever since. Learn more about this unique instrument at https://stcorneliuschurch.org/music.
The program, titled "A World of Wonders," is a musical celebration of the fantastic world that surrounds us. You'll hear music from the 1500s through 2022, from Italy, Germany, Nigeria, England, Sweden, and the U.S. Come celebrate a world of wonders with me!
