  • General Comments
    Specific Comments from AGO Members [Note: Space was provided at the end of the long-range planning surveys for respondents to add comments. We have arranged these anonymous responses in random order by category. Several comments that seemed to fit into multiple categories were divided accordingly. Comments from the surveys of lapsed members and national leaders, included at the end of this document, are not divided by category, but are arranged in roughly the same order by topic. In addition, comments that were specifically directed toward one AGO officer or committee were placed in a separate document (“Comments for Committees”) and forwarded to the appropriate official for action. Comments have been lightly edited for spelling and grammar. — Long-Range Planning Task Force.] General Culture I love my AGO. I donate annually, and I read my TAO cover to cover. I fear that we are too cloistered, and are relevant to ourselves only. We must make the leap to introduce ourselves to the greater outside world as an exciting source of music. We must be kind to the Miss Susies while still insisting on high musicianship. We must not be defined as religion-only oriented, while demanding respect from seminaries. We must not be ashamed of being smart and capable, but also be able “to work and play well with others,” which may mean choking on a sappy anthem from time to time. We have to step up to the plate and forge our new place in this heathen society that does not value culture and education. We must make ourselves irresistible to those who have no trouble resisting us right now.

JOHN SCHWANDT, DM Professor of Music; Director, AOI Fall greetings to all of our faithful Windlines readers and AOI supporters! If anyone wondered about the reduced frequency of our publication, we felt a longer annual newsletter brimming with interesting information might be more pragmatic and beneficial, especially given the increase of our electronic media presence throughout the year. As always, please let us know what you think. Lest any reader perceive the absence of a newsletter during the year means there was little to write about, this lengthy issue will certainly correct any such perception. Our ever-growing AOI family continually inspires me, from our talented students to our dedicated and highly skilled faculty and staff. Regarding the latter, I am pleased to report several outstanding additions to our roster of professionals. Each brings with them superb qualifications, skill, and expertise in their respective areas to the AOI. I would like to highlight the appointment of Clark Wilson as adjunct instructor of theatre organ. Clark’s presence is the capstone of the development of the AOI, as we have added courses in popular and theatrical organ that allow for an emphasis on theatrical organ — we believe it to be a first since the Eastman School trained organists to accompany silent films in their own era.

    THE ROYAL POINCIANA CHAPEL OCTOBER NEWSLETTER ISSUE 21 Rev. Dr. Robert S. Norris, Senior Pastor THE SERMONS WE SING The greatness of God invites a response that moves people beyond mere words. And so, we sing. About music the Protestant Reformer, Martin Luther, wrote: “Next to theology I give to music the highest place and honor. Music is the art of the prophets, the only art that can calm the agitations of the soul; it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents God has given us.” Whether it's a cantata; a hymn, an anthem or a doxology, whenever Christians gather to worship God, you'll find Christians singing. We know that singing must matter to God, because Scripture contains more than 500 references to singing, including 50 direct commands to sing to God. On Sunday, October 13th, we began our fall worship series “The Sermons We Sing” with a wonderful and fun old fashion hymn sing led by Lloyd Mims and Stewart Foster. I invite you to give voice to more favorite Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs in the coming weeks. Of these I will be preaching ... October 20 THE PROMISES THAT KEEP US “Standing On The Promises Of God” For the promise is for you, for your children, and for all who are far away, everyone whom the Lord calls to him. - Acts 2:38 October 27 WHEN THE DRAWBRIDGE GOES UNGUARDED “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God” The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. - Psalm 46:7 November 3 All Saints Day - Communion With Renown Guest Organist - Diane Bish! THE SAINTS ABOVE AND AROUND US “For All The Saints Who From Their Labors Rest” November 17 I’VE GROWN ACCUSTOMED TO YOUR GRACE “Amazing Grace” For by grace, you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God.
