Musical Meditations

Thank you to the few but special that came out tonight. What an interesting program, and played wonderfully!

We look forward to welcoming Michael back in the future.

Get ready to be inspired! Join us on September 23rd at 7pm for an unforgettable evening of uplifting organ music, expertly performed by Michael Bloss, featuring iconic works by Franck, Hindemith, Schumann, Bach, and more!

Michael will be playing some spectacular music! Take a look at his program:

Want to know more about Michael? Here are some interesting facts:

MICHAEL BLOSS has been described as an animated performer, sensitive collaborative musician and illuminative coach and who, during a career spanning almost half a century, has championed pastoral music ministry. Michael currently serves as Director of Music of St. Mark’s Anglican Church in Niagara-on-the-Lake, and has held respected tenures at Christ’s Church Cathedral, Hamilton ON, The Cathedral Church of St. James, and Timothy Eaton Memorial Church, in Toronto. He has performed throughout North America, Europe and Japan, and appeared on the national networks of the CBC, American Public Radio and Swiss Radio. The most memorable experience would surely be becoming the first Canadian to be awarded the designation of Preisträger at the International Bach Competition in Leipzig, Germany playing in Bach’s own church. His discography includes numerous recordings collaborating with Noel Edison and is eagerly awaiting the release of the Trois Chorals and Grande piece symphonique of César Franck to be released on the Naxos label.

We're excited to be welcoming Michael Bloss on September 23rd to play on the Casavant organ at New St. James. Here's a little sample of him playing that we hope will inspire you to attend:
