York, PA 17403 RSVP to Victor Fields, 717-858-4982, York- [email protected] DEAN’ S LETTER The York Chapter American Guild of Organists is beginning its 80th year! Founded in 1935, the mission of the AGO has changed very little over the years. The mission of the American Guild of Organists is to enrich lives through organ and choral music. The organ is regularly played and heard weekly throughout the world. From the smallest size, i.e. the 1804 Tannenberg organ to large instruments, the organ can be heard in sacred and secular spaces. In Philadelphia, once can hear the Wanamaker Organ played almost every day of the year. Organs are played every Saturday and Sunday in churches and every Friday in synagogues. Organs can be heard in retirement communities, in social halls, in movie theaters, in concert halls and in museums. No matter where the organ is located, organists can enrich all whose ears behold its beauty and color. In times of worship, in wedding celebrations, in funeral settings, the organ has the power to transcend great awe majesty and wonder. Whether playing 3 or 350 ranks, organists must convey the message of the greatness of music. The York Chapter is beginning a new season with some educational programs along with some fun programs and some times for socializing. We welcome Patee Pizzirusso as our newsletter editor. We look forward to a new look for the Orgelzeit. We welcome new members to our Executive Board, Carol Downs Brady, Ashley Horner and Beth Pugliese. Lastly, we welcome your input.

  • Choir School News • 3 Memories of John Scott from the Choir School Community
    Can- Dom- tate ino Choir School News A Newsletter for Alumni & Friends of Saint Thomas Choir School WINTER/SPRING 2016 ©2016 Studios Ira Lippke John Gavin Scott (1956-2015) This edition of the Choir School News is in thanksgiving for the life and witness of John Scott. Here, alumni, parents, colleagues and friends share memories and reflections of his extraordinary impact on this community. Through John’s gifts, people not only experienced music of the highest caliber, but were also drawn deeper into the mystery of God. For all of us, John’s death was a terrible shock. It has caused us to reflect on how fragile life can be. Even as we have moved forward at the Choir School, we continue to miss him and entrust him to God’s care and protection. I invite you to share in our common life through these pages. –Charles F. Wallace, Headmaster IN MEMORIAM EXCERPTS FROM FATHER MEAD’S HOMILY AT JOHN SCOTT’S FUNERAL Evensong and a recital of Buxtehude. I asked John, who was then forty-seven but had been at St. Paul’s since his mid-twenties, would he be interested in coming to Saint Thomas? He would be interested, he replied, but that if I would please understand he would like not to have to apply. Very well; would he give me his resume? Yes, he would. This was pure John. As John prepared to leave St. Paul’s, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth made him a Lieutenant of the Victorian Order (LVO) for his distinguished services to the Crown at London’s great cathedral, where John led the music for many royal and state occasions – not to mention the daily round of choral evensongs and other liturgies.

    T H E W I N D C H E S T Newsletter of the Delaware Chapter American Guild of Organists ! September 2015 Dear Colleagues, Welcome to our New Year and to its first Newsletter, full of good stuff. You will find greetings from our new Dean and Subdean, details of our exciting program year, as well as information about other outstanding events. Please put them on your calendar and join us, beginning with the first meeting on 12 September. Be like a Wise Man and come with a covered dish. (To repeat the old joke: Biblical scholars know that at least one of the Wise Men was a Lutheran, because he brought a covered dish.) “A Great Cloud of Witnesses.” These faithful men and women who came before us to “pave the way” are referred to in Hebrews 12:1. I always mentioned to my students the names of my teachers, along with other famous teachers from previous generations. I do that, first, so that they have a sense of who their “pedagogical grandparents” were. In addition, I wanted them to know the names of legendary persons from the past whom they will never meet and, very likely, whose names they have never heard. Such as that first American generation from whom many of us are descended: Arthur Poister (Syracuse University), Harold Gleason (Eastman) and Palmer Christian (University of Michigan). A suggestion: Thank your teachers and tell your students about them. ! ! ! Arthur Poister (1898-1980) Harold Gleason (1892-1980) and Palmer Christian (1841-1953) his wife, the late Catherine Crozier In closing, I want to mention that, along with organists around the world, we in Delaware surely lament the sudden and early death of John Scott, organist and choirmaster of St.

  • St John's College Chapel
    St John’s College Chapel EVENSONG IN MEMORY OF JOHN GAVIN SCOTT L.V.O. (1956–2015) ORGAN STUDENT (1974–1978) Saturday 6 February 2016 Christopher Robinson writes: My first memory of John takes me back to 1975 when St John’s College Choir gave a concert in Windsor as part of the quincentenary celebrations at St George’s Chapel. Though the Choir was on top form, my most vivid memory is of John’s organ playing. His accompaniments were stylish and imaginative and he gave an immaculate performance of Bach’s first Trio Sonata. Watching him in rehearsal, I was astonished at the way he made it all look so easy. Here was real talent, an impressive technique and musical judgment of remarkable maturity. More recently I have enjoyed visiting John in New York on two occasions, and had the opportunity both to hear and direct the wonderful choir which he trained with such meticulous care. It was good to find him happy, relaxed and fulfilled. This is perhaps not surprising for St Thomas’s is a church where liturgy, preaching and music compliment each other and create a very special spiritual experience. To borrow the Rector’s words – the glory John wanted was the glory of God. John’s death will have come as a terrible shock to his family and to his friends and admirers world-wide. But for Lily in particular, his loss will be very hard to bear. She will know, along with all his family, how much St John’s College meant to John and they should also know that his name and reputation will live on here.
