Jacobs School of Music Holds Organ Recital in Auer Hall 6/21
The Indiana University Jacobs School of Music recently had dedication concerts of the Jacobs School's Maidee H. and Jackson A. Seward Organ.
The organ is being named for Maidee H. and Jackson A. Seward, M.D., whose gift made the project possible. The instrument boasts nearly 4,000 pipes, each painstakingly voiced by master organ builders C. B. Fisk, Inc. It will also be known as the C. B. Fisk, Op. 135.The organ is housed in the Jacobs School's Auer Hall, which was renovated and technically upgraded to create not only an ideal acoustic setting for the instrument but also an extremely versatile space to meet the school's broad range of needs for teaching and performance.
In addition to the dedication concerts, the Jacobs School of Music will present the following free organ recitals in Auer Hall:
Monday, June 21, 8 p.m. - Pipe Organ Encounter Faculty Recital
Friday, June 25, 8 p.m. - Pipe Organ Encounter Faculty Recital
Saturday, June 26, 10 a.m. - Pipe Organ Encounter Student Recital
