Iberian Organ Music from the Golden Age

Duke University Organist Robert Parkins presented a program of early Iberian Organ Music last Sunday, October 19. In addition to presenting this most interesting program, a slideshow of paintings that are on exhibit at the Nasher Museum's exhibition El Greco to Velázquez: Art during the Reign of Philip II.

This concert program will list not only the pieces Dr. Parkins played, but the pieces of art that were exhibited alongside those pieces. It was a wonderful program and complimented the paintings very well. Naturally, this recital took place on the Brombaugh Organ.
