Last night we listened to Seitze deVries give a concert on this really cool pipe organ at UNLV. Afterward, Jan's husband Matt took us up close so we could see the ranks of pipes behind the large visible ones. Our favorite numbers were Bach's Toccata in C Major and Mr. deVries's Improvisations on A Mighty Fortress Is Our God. He has a super cute wife who is from South Africa and is also an organist. They are very nice people.
We have never noticed organs as much as we have lately. We even have a pipe organ in the chapel of our new ward. I'd really like to give it a whirl, even though I'm not really an organist.Hear Sietze deVries on YouTube.
Next Saturday we are going to St. George to hear Jan give a recital in the St. George tabernacle. Hopefully we can also hook up with the Porters who live there now.
