American Guild of Organists
Milwaukee Chapter
 

WELCOME


    The American Guild of Organists - Milwaukee Chapter was chartered on May 5, 1919, to serve and support the professional activities of organists and church musicians in the Milwaukee area. Persons who participate in our chapter are organists, choir directors, organ builders, technicians, clergy, students, and those who appreciate organ and sacred music. The Chapter is open to those of all levels of playing proficiency.  Members especially appreciate the participation of those who simply listen and support organ and choral concerts.

AGO-OHS Recital Boasts Record Attendance

Click to enlarge

On November 6 the Chapter co-sponsored a recital with the Wisconsin Chapter of the Organ Historical Society at St. Francis of Assisi R.C. Church. Chapter member, Dr. Leon W. Couch III presented a varied and delightful program of Buxtehude, Böhm, Bach, Linker, Vierne and Eban. The annual recital at St. Francis Church benefits the maintenance of the 1885 William Schuelke organ; the largest unaltered instrument surviving from the workshops of the Milwaukee Builder. This year’s recital enjoyed the best attendance since the beginning of the annual recital series despite competing with a Packers game.


L-R, Dr. Leon W. Couch III, Fr Thomas Lijewski, Larry Wheelock
