  1. Am I out of my mind?

    I wasn't sure if I should post this question here, or if the composer's lounge would be a better place. Here goes. :) I have always wanted to compose music--primarily for the organ, but also choral music. I recently heard of a competition (which will go unnamed) for choral pieces that have never...
  2. Questions from a new organist

    Hello everyone! I started playing the organ a few weeks back and have loved every minute of it! I have an amazing teacher (I'm pretty sure there isn't a better one in the city!) and we have two lessons a week, as time permits. I'd like to know (from some of the older organists, and ones just...

  7. Concert Experiences

    I'd love to hear of any unusual, interesting or special organ performances you have either performed in or been at, ecspecially experiences of your own organ recitals. I have heard some very humerous ones and would enjoy hearing more. Sometimes though, at the time it may have not seemed very...
  8. The Highland Cathedral

    Greetings, everyone! I was wondering if any of you have had the chance to hear or play a piece for organ and bagpipes called The Highland Cathedral. It is my favorite piece of classical music but sadly is not very well known and the only good recording that I have located of it is currently "out...
