Glenn Priest, Former Artist-in-Residence with the Boston Pops Orchestra will perform a piano duet concert with Chris Garven, Organist & Music Director.
Glenn Priest, former Artist-in-Residence at the Boston Pops and current Director of Worship at Fairhaven Church in Dayton, Ohio, and Chris Garven, Director of Music at St Peter’s Anglican Cathedral have performed together for over 25 years under the name “Musical Benches.” They feature great organ and piano music in an easy, engaging, and exciting way. This event will feature the great pipe organ and beautiful Steinways of St Peter’s. The evening will culminate with the famed Choral Fantasy, which is a 25-minute, single-movement piano concerto with a choir. This is sort of a mini Ninth Symphony, composed earlier in Beethoven’s life featuring the full forces of orchestra, piano, and choir!
