*It was a very interesting evening, these were ten of Christian's students,
out of a total of eighteen he is currently teaching, and having heard some
of these musicians earlier at different recitals in the area I am always
happy to report they are very talented and seem to improve each time I hear
them. I'm not going into individual reports on each player, just to say
everyone did an excellent job of his or her piece. This is a group that
will be a force to be reckoned with as they enter the musical world after
graduation, hopefully, all, or at least some will pursue a career in
organ.*
*The Spring series of Tuesday recitals will begin January 28, 2014 at
7:30PM These concerts are free. The artist will be Katelyn Emerson.*
*Cheers,*
*Mack*
