From the Vieux Carré to Versailles: Echoes of the French Organ

Description

Historic New Orleans Collection is excited to present a rare solo recital featuring visiting scholar and organist Dr. Joyce Wei-Jo Chen, who will perform on HNOC’s restored Aeolian residence organ located in the Barbara S. Beckman Music Room at 520 Royal Street. Dr. Chen will perform works by French composers—including François Couperin, Louis Vierne, and others—that showcase the capabilities of this mechanical musical marvel. Admission is free with registration required at hnoc.org. Seating is very limited, with some standing room available for walk-up attendees.
