Feb. 8 - Langenberg Organ Recital Series, sponsored by Hastings College and First Presbyterian Church
Lorenz Maycher, Laurel, Miss., will perform in the third of four Langenberg Organ Recitals, Sunday, Feb. 17, at 5 p.m., at First Presbyterian Church, 621 N. Lincoln Ave., Hastings, Neb. This is the second year for the organ recital series.
The recital is free and open to the public. Following the recital, a light meal will be served in Fellowship Hall.
Maycher is organist and choirmaster at First-Trinity Presbyterian Church in Laurel. He previously was organist and choirmaster at Trinity Episcopal Church, Bethlehem, Pa., and was an adjunct music faculty member at Lafayette College and Moravian College, where he taught piano and organ. For 10 years, Maycher was organist at First Church of Christ, Scientist, in New York City.
A native of Oklahoma, Maycher studied organ with Margaret Lindsay, Thomas Matthews, Clyde Holloway and William Watkins. A graduate of Rice University, he won the Gibbons Prize in organ, placed first in the San Antonio Pipe Organ Competition, and won the Houston AGO’s Mary Ellen Bond Award.
In 2004, Maycher was awarded an honorary doctorate of sacred music at St. Dunstan’s College, Providence, R.I.
The Langenberg Organ Recital Series commemorates the 50-year anniversary of First Presbyterian Church’s Austin organ. Through the generosity of the Langenberg Music Endowment, a four-year organ enhancement/renovation project began in 2002.
The Langenberg Music Endowment was established in 2001 following the death of Luella Langenberg. The endowment provides for special needs of the church’s music program including the purchase of Steinway piano, honoraria for collegiate chancel choir section leaders, and for the purchase of Orff instruments.
The organ recital series is co-sponsored by the Hastings College Department of Music, the Hastings College Vocation and Values Program, and First Presbyterian Church.
