Central North Carolina AGO Members' Recital Program

Last night, my friend Tom Bloom and I went off to Resurrection (LC/MS) Lutheran Church in Cary, NC. There, the Central North Carolina Chapter of the American Guild of Organists held their Members' Recital. As they were celebrating the tercentenary anniversary of Dietrich Buxtehude's death, and the centenary anniversary of Jean Langlais' birth, the recital featured works by Buxtehude and Langlais.
