About the Artist:
Philip Tummescheit currently studies organ with Christopher Houlihan. A parishioner of St. John’s Episcopal Church for eight years, he gained both inspiration to play the organ and foundational skills from Scott Lamlein. For two years he served as principal organist at Trinity Episcopal Church in Wethersfield, Connecticut. He currently plays organ part time for the Church of St. Andrew the Apostle in Rocky Hill. In May 2025, Philip won first place in the L. Cameron Johnson organ competition in Storrs, Connecticut. He was selected to participate in an advanced Pipe Organ Encounter in Worcester, Massachusetts in July 2025. Philip also plays the violin and piano, with a particular affinity for all things Bach.
