Lenten Organ Recitals
March 20, 2016, 2:00 PM
FreeEach Lent, the church hosts organists from the Waterville area for a series of Sunday afternoon concerts. This year's line-up is:
- February 14: Anna Beth Rynders, First Congregational Church, Waterville
- February 21: Sharon Saunders, Pleasant Street United Methodist Church, Waterville
- February 28: Ed Larson, Penney Memorial Baptist Church, Augusta (retired)
- March 6: Howard “Budge" Whalen, Rockland church organist and member of choir
- March 13: (No recital scheduled.)
- March 20: Jay Zoller, South Parish Congregational Church, Augusta
An interesting feature of the concerts is that the organ is moved into the center of the chancel and turned so that the audience can see the organist playing the keyboards and the pedals. Each performance lasts 30 – 45 minutes and is followed by refreshments and the chance to meet that day's recitalist.
