St. John's Organ Society Concert Series Organ Concert

In 1993, a year after being appointed director of music and organist of St. John Church, Kevin Birch established the St. John’s Organ Society, an organization committed to the preservation and appreciation of the church’s beautiful and historic E. & G. G. Hook pipe organ, Op. 288 (1860). This large instrument was described by John Fesperman, Curator Emeritus of Musical Instruments at the Smithsonian Institution, as “a musical monument of great importance”, and by Alan Laufman, Past President of the Organ Historical Society, as “a national treasure.”

The summer concert series features a variety of performers.  The suggested donation to attend is $10. For more information, call (207) 217-6740.
