Program Note

Nathan starts off on the Fisk organ with its Northern European and Italian characteristics. Included here is the music of Buxtehude, Antoni van Noordt, Allesandro Poglietti and M. Rossi (a Frescobaldi student) — in both a serious and somewhat humorous way.

The second part of the program switches gears on the Skinner organ. Featuring music composed in the first three decades of the 20th-century, Nathan weaves a rich harmonic tapestry with a Rachmaninoff transcription, followed by pieces by Dupré, Howells and Joseph Jongen.

Nathan Laube is represented by Karen McFarlane Artists.
