THE DIAPASON will present its first special event: Midwinter Pipe Organ Conclave, January 18–19, 2015, in La Grange, Illinois, co-sponsored by the Chicago and Fox Valley AGO chapters and the Chicago-Midwest chapter of the Organ Historical Society. This conclave will offer lectures and recitals on notable organs in this western suburb of Chicago that boasts many fine pipe organs. The schedule will include recitals by David Schrader, Jonathan Rudy, and Scott Montgomery, lectures by Stephen Schnurr, Philip Kloeckner, and Karen Brunssen, and more. Watch for further information in THE DIAPASON, on our website, and in next month's newsletter.
