SCSO's Accompanist Ryan Enright Featured at Chico State Centennial Organ Concert

Dr. Ryan Enright, the SCSO's Accompanist and Organist at St. John's Lutheran in Sacramento, will be featured in recital on the historic Centennial Organ in Chico State University's Performing Arts Center

Friday, September 6 - 7:30 PM

Chico State Performing Arts Building-  Harlen Adams Theater

Program:
     French Classical Suite - Gulain
     Chorale Partita - Böhm
     Trio Sonata movement - J.S. Bach
     Tiento - Correa de Arauxo (17th c. Spanish)
     Three improvisations

The instrument, built by genius builder Munetaka Yokota between 1984 and 1990, was spearheaded by University Organist Emeritus Dr. David Rothe and inspired by a desire for historically accurate and fine instruments. Builder Yokota called on local residents to help and used local materials to build this organ over a six-year period. It is one of the best historic organ builds in California and one of the best instruments in Northern California.
