    Organ Concert - Charles Raasch

    The program focuses on French literature, with a couple of important exceptions. The exuberant and joyful BWV541 Prelude and Fugue in G of Bach will open the concert. We are excited to present the West Coast premiere of Dr. Tom Mueller's "Sonata" written last Spring. Dr. Mueller, assistant professor of church music at Concordia University, is a diligent and careful composer, with a harmonic language that is at the same time fresh and accessible. This amazing piece is a great addition to the corpus of organ literature. Major French works from Durufle, Jongen and Saint-Saens are the core of the performance.
