David Hurd to leave Truckenbrod management
David Hurd is stepping back from concert organist management under the auspices of Phillip Truckenbrod Concert Artists after 49 years with the agency.
While he will continue to offer the occasional solo organ recital, his focus now will concentrate on music at the Church of St. Mary the Virgin in New York City, teaching masterclasses in organ, improvisation, and composing, and on his career as a composer of music for the church and concert hall.
Hurd has had one of the longest tenures on the agency’s roster, as he was invited to join in 1977 following his winning the organ performance and organ improvisation competitions of the International Congress of Organists. Hurd continues to welcome inquiries about potential commissioned work, and he can be reached at [email protected].
