Organ Library Nov 2024

November Chapter Event

Featuring our Organ Library

Saturday, November 2, 9:30 am – 12 noon
Boston University School of Theology
745 Commonwealth Ave., Boston, MA 02215

Following a tour of the library, we will celebrate the many years of Chapter radio broadcasts, and honor Martin Steinmetz for his years of service to the Library and the Chapter. Additionally, Carl Klein will present “Gems and Gumdrops from the Library Administrator,” a curated list of short, rather easy, high-quality pieces, in exceptionally good taste, for church use, by composers you won’t necessarily know. This installment concentrates on French composers from about 1850 to 2000, with a few additional favorites from other traditions and periods.
