Enjoy an hour of organ music with Latvian-American organist Lauma Akmene. Her program highlights groundbreaking composers including Florence B. Price, Fela Sowande, and Clara Schumann, whose work has shaped organ music beyond the traditional canon.
Our organ recital series features some of the finest organists playing one of America’s great organs. Grace Cathedral’s 7,466-pipe Aeolian-Skinner instrument, the Charles B. Alexander Memorial Organ (1934), is one of the first and finest American classic-style organs and is among the largest church organs in the West. Experiencing music in our gothic cathedral with its unique acoustics, soaring nave, and jewel-like stained glass windows is a feast for the ears, eyes, and soul.
