Noontime Organ Recitals begin Sept. 23, 2008 at Ransdell Five Tuesday noon organ recitals are scheduled through April 14, 2008 By Joan C. McKinney, CU news and publications coordinator The Campbellsville University School of Music is launching a new Tuesday Noontime Organ Recital Series to feature the organ in Ransdell Chapel, according to Dr. Wesley Roberts, professor of music, who will be the first organist. The sessions begin September 23, 2008, and each program will be approximately 30 minutes in length beginning at 12:05pmET and ending at 12:35pmET. Roberts, who will present the first concert, has been teaching courses in piano and musicology, since he joined Campbellsville University's faculty in 1982. He has presented concerts as pianist and organist throughout the United States, in Europe and in Asia, including programs in New York City, Los Angeles, London, Paris, Lyon, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Prague, Zurich and Shanghai. Roberts said the other scheduled organists include:
Roberts said the series is designed to "provide an opportunity for those in the community to hear outstanding organists and our prized instrument in short concert programs during their lunch break." The organ played a significant historical role in church music and has generally been the leading instrument for congregation singing in recent centuries, Roberts said. "Our rebuilt and refurbished 1894 Farrand and Votey pipe organ in Ransdell Chapel is a prized possession which was used for over a century in Christ Church Cathedral in Nashville and is now used on campus for chapel service, special events and concerts in Ransdell Chapel," he said. It is a 51-rank, three-manual instrument with over 3,000 pipes. It was installed at Campbellsville University in early 2007 in time for the dedication of the Ransdell Chapel April 18, 2007. The organ was formally dedicated in a recital by Nevalyn Moore, assistant professor of music at CU, who retired this year. Each organ recital is open to the public at no charge. For more information, contact the School of Music at (270) 789-5237 or music@campbellsville.edu. Campbellsville University is a private, comprehensive institution located in South Central Kentucky.
