PIPEDREAMS LIVE! In Dallas

September 13, 2010

Michael Barone will host another popular event in Dallas, featuring an all-star showcase of regional soloists, at the Meyerson Symphony Center. Sponsors include the Dallas and Fort Worth chapters of the American Guild of Organists and Classical 101-WRR-FM. Plan ahead…we hope for a capacity crowd that includes you! There’s nothing like the Meyerson’s impressive 84-rank C. B. Fisk pipe organ (the Lay Family Concert Organ). Click here for tickets

 

A.G.O. in 1982 from D.C.

Travel back in time and enjoy performances recorded at the 1982 AGO Convention in Washington, DC, which were originally broadcast on PIPEDREAMS in the summer of 1984. Of particular interest are comments from composers Ned Rorem and National Cathedral organists Paul Callaway and Richard Wayne Dirksen.
