Welcoming and Engaging Young Organists

We would like to remind everyone in our chapter that July 1, 2021, through June 30, 2022, is the AGO’s Year of the Young Organist. This initiative includes one year of free membership in the AGO and a subscription to The American Organist magazine. We appreciate the efforts National AGO is making through this program, and our chapter is also very serious about our desire to recruit and engage young musicians who have shown an interest in the organ.

The NSAGO would like to “reach out,” too, and the first step is to get to know who our young organists are. Are you teaching one, or do you know of one who would like to take lessons? Do you have or know about current or prospective students? 

Please let us know how we can connect with them and share what is available to help them move forward in their endeavors.
