Pipes Alive! – Grant Wareham, organist
The 2020 Pipes Alive! series continues with Grant Wareham playing the St. John’s organ on Sunday, March 1 at 12:30 p.m.
A Dayton, Ohio native, Grant Wareham began organ studies in 2007. After earning his BMus at Rice University with Ken Cowan, Grant currently studies with Thomas Murray at Yale University. Winner of both the First and Audience Prizes at the Albert Schweitzer Organ Competition in Hartford, CT in 2017, Grant was also a featured performer at the 62nd annual convention of the Organ Historical Society in St. Paul, Minnesota. This June, Grant will compete in the 2019 Longwood International Organ Competition at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, PA. Grant was selected as one of the Diapason Magazine’s “20 under 30” Class of 2019, a prestigious honor for young organists changing the field of organ, harpsichord, and church music.
Join us for half-hour organ concerts featuring St. John’s magnificent Austin pipe organ, on the first Sunday of the month, January through June, 12:30 p.m. with regional organists. Free!
This concert is supported in part by the Marjorie Jolidon Fund of the Greater Hartford Chapter, American Guild of Organists, and by the Richard P. Garmany Fund of the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving.
