The spectacular Ruffatti pipe organ is featured in six Lenten organ recitals offered by our Director of Music Ministries, Dr. Brice Gerlach. In these informal concerts Brice takes the time to explain some of the mechanical workings of the organ and offers some musical insights about the pieces on the program. Each concert opens with a piece that highlights the magnificent horizontal trumpets protruding from the front of the organ case. A work by J.S. Bach is always featured and arrangements of Lenten hymn tunes are presented, allowing for some of the diverse solo stops and softer sounds of the organ to be heard. The concerts will end with a rousing toccata, allowing the audience to hear the full power of the organ.After the recital, the audience is invited to the console to ask questions and see the beautiful woodwork and craftsmanship of the Ruffatti. Tours of the pipe chambers are offered each week. These concerts are very popular and we hope that you will attend to one or all of them and bring a friend. Brice is an evangelist for the organ and makes these short concerts educational, exciting and entertaining.
