Christian Crocker, Director of Music, comments, “We are delighted to bring the brilliant organist Dr. Patrick Stewart to Chattanooga to perform on our magnificent Casavant organ. A master of art of improvisation, he will present a fully improvised, that is to say spontaneous and in the moment, performance based on the images in the historic stained glass windows surrounding the St. Paul’s sanctuary. Our aim in the Artist Series at St. Paul’s is to present performances of the highest quality, reflecting the beauty of our great Creator in artistry. We hope you will join us to experience this glorious music in our beautiful space.“
