Organ Recital Featuring Notre Dame Cathedral Organist, Olivier Latry

Experience a once-in-a-lifetime evening of music as Boston Avenue United Methodist Church presents Notre Dame Cathedral Organist Olivier Latry in concert, as part of the Fred Elder Recital Series.

Olivier Latry is widely recognized as one of the greatest concert organists in the world today. At just 23, he was appointed one of the titular organists of the famed Cathedral of Notre-Dame in Paris, where he continues to serve. In addition to his role in Paris, he is Professor of Organ at the Paris Conservatory, Organist Emeritus of the Montreal Symphony Orchestra, and Artist in Residence at the University of Kansas. His playing has been praised for its elegance, virtuosity, and "consummate artistry" by critics from The New York Times to The Los Angeles Times.

It is a rare opportunity to hear the artistry of Notre Dame's organist on the historic Boston Avenue organ. The program features masterworks by French composers Widor, Franck, Guilmant, and Durufle, alongside a thrilling Bach transcription. The evening will conclude with an unforgettable improvisation created spontaneously on a theme presented to him live, showcasing the transcendent tradition of Notre Dame's organists.
