Christopher Shaw, organist and Director of Music at Plymouth

"I hope you are planning on attending this concert! It will be out of this world! There will be some organ music, some singing by YOU, and science experiments. I'm excited to be joined by my friend, organist, and chemist Will Wiebe-Friesen. This is the final program for the American Guild of Organists - Wichita, KS Chapter AND the first concert on the 25th Anniversary Celebration Series at Plymouth Congregational Church."

Tonight!!!

🎶 Don’t miss the grand finale of the Rie Bloomfield Organ Series! 🎶

Join us 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 24, in Wiedemann Recital Hall as Lynne Davis brings the Marcussen organ to life in a season‑closing performance filled with color, contrast and artistry.

This special evening is dedicated to the memory of Pat Hysko, a steadfast advocate for the School of Music. Pat and her husband Don opened their home for intimate garden concerts and warmly welcomed celebrated French organists and organ builders from Notre Dame in Paris—helping shape a rich musical tradition in our community.

✨ Enjoy powerful works by Bach, Du Mage, Bruhns, Sweelinck and Alain, plus a post‑intermission Conversation with the Artist that offers deeper insight into the music.
