Concert to Celebrate New Organ in Waterbury
The White Meeting House, home to Waterbury Congregational Church, is now home to a new organ. After months of planning, preparation, carpentry and fine-tuning, the church will proudly unveil and dedicate its new organ at a concert for the community on Sunday, October 4th at 4PM.
Organists Mary Jane Austin (organist at the Waterbury Congregational Church), Ken Scott (organist at the Trinity Methodist Church in Montpelier), Lynnette Coombs (organist at Christ Church in Montpelier) and David Neiweem (professor of organ at UVM) will play music that highlights the all-digital Bravura custom organ’s amazing configurations of stops and sounds and the great composers for the organ including, Dieterich Buxtehude, Johann Sebastian Bach, Cesar Franck and Louis Marchand.
The new organ replaces the White Meeting House’s 100 plus year-old organ that was in great need of repair, and offers a wider range of options for musical events hosted in the White Meeting House throughout the year. Admission to the celebratory concert is by donation and all are welcome. Join us on October 4th at 8 North Main Street in Waterbury!
