'Tis the season to listen to holiday music, and there's no better instrument to provide that festive soundtrack than a Mighty Wurlitzer theater pipe organ. (Okay, we're biased, but we think you'll agree!) That's right, we're carrying on tradition by closing out the 2024 Organ Pops Concert series at the Senate with a Christmas concert! This year we are featuring the supremely talented, Lance Luce!
But you won't simply be able to listen to unique theater organ arrangements of seasonal tunes on one of the largest theater organs ever built. Mr. Luce will also be asking you, the audience, to help promote the Christmas spirit by joining him in a carol sing-along. Additionally you can expect a short Laurel & Hardy film with live organ accompaniment, a perfect way to show off the power of our unique theater organ.

In 2014 he was awarded Organist of the year by the American Theatre Organ Society. In 2017 he became organist for the Detroit Red Wings at the new Little Caesar’s Arena in Detroit.
He has played concerts for numerous chapters of the American Theatre Organ Society and other affiliated theatre organ groups and clubs. He has played for National and regional conventions of the ATOS in the United States and TOSA in Australia.
At age 18, Lance won first place honors in the Yamaha National Electone organ competition in California. The next year he was appointed the Head Staff Organist at Radio City Music Hall in New York, on the largest Wurlitzer ever built. Lance has made many recordings, including being part of the famous "Theatre Organ Greats - A Salute to Radio City Music Hall"
Lance was the house organist at several family style restaurants, two of them in Michigan. While at the Organ Grinder in Toronto, Ontario, he played for well over a million patrons in 8 years.

Lance has designed and installed over 350 organs in churches, homes and institutions. His background includes pipe organ maintenance, as well as electronic organ design, installation, voicing, pipe interfacing and MIDI implementation.
