OVERVIEW OF CHAPTER ACTIVITIES
2009-2010
 
We cordially invite area organists, organ enthusiasts, and the general public to attend a variety of organ-related activities, which are sponsored by our organization throughout the year. Most of the events are free. More information will be provided in our monthly newsletters.
 

--March 21, 2010 (Sunday) – Bach member recital, 7:30 p.m.  State Hospital Chapel (Contact Claire Rogers with your pieces.)

 

--April 24, 2010 (Saturday) – Our chapter's annual "Super Saturday” will be held from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in the Harris Fine Arts Center, BYU, on April 24. There is no charge for this event, and a light lunch will also be free. After signing in at 8:00 a.m. in the south foyer of the Madsen Recital Hall, go to the

recital hall for a hymn sing, followed by the keynote address by Herbert Klopfer, member of the LDS Church General Music Committee.

 

Workshop sessions will include: basic organ techniques, organ registration, hymn playing, an organ repertoire reading session, Q&A with Herbert Klopfer, hymn-playing master class, and free

individual instruction. Guild members are needed to play in the hymn-playing master class at level three or above.

 

We also need help with registration, flyer distribution, luncheon, etc. Please e-mail or call Lori Serr, chairman, at 489-8222, if you can help.

 

--May - TBA

 

 

Informal Recitals

We invite all to join us no matter what level you are on. We would benefit from your presence, whether you choose to play anything or not.

 

March 19 (Friday) -- 7:30 p.m., Utah State Hospital Chapel

________________

 

This year, in addition to playing repertoire, we would like to encourage the playing of hymns. If you play your own arrangements of hymns for preludes and postludes—specifically arrangements that are not written out but played from the hymn book--please consider coming and sharing them with us.

 

Please be prepared to either bring copies of instructions or to explain what you do on each line or verse or how you put several hymns together. If you haven’t ventured to do that yet, we invite you

to come and get some ideas!

 

Our usual evening is the third Friday of each month. If you would like to volunteer your organ or your chapel for these events, please contact Ruth Ann Hay, who coordinates the informals. Her e-mail is on the front page of this newsletter. If you would like to participate, but the third Friday of the month doesn’t work for you, please contact Ruth Ann, as well. If there is enough response we can make adjustments.

 

We look forward to seeing each one of you this year as we learn and grow together.
