MESSAGE From the dean:
Miami 's coastal location and proximity to the Islands makes it unique in its diversity and international population. Such diversity is also reflected in its churches and worship, which presents a unique situation and challenge to our American Guild of Organists chapter as we align our mission with that of our national organization, which "seeks to set and maintain high musical standards and to promote understanding and appreciation of all aspects of organ and choral music." As we launch our 2023-24 season of events, we hope to acknowledge this diversity in our programming and invite all to participate in our chapter, whether you are an organ aficionado or professional musician.
Whether you are a member of our chapter or just visiting, I do hope that you take the time to browse through our website. Here you will find information about our programs for the current year, information about our pipe organs around our city, and even a photo gallery of our past events.
If you are not a member of our chapter, I encourage you, and I hope you join us! I always say membership has its benefits. Benefits include our substitute list, admission to several concerts throughout the year, our monthly newsletter: the Miami Mixtures, a yearly subscription to The American Organists magazine publication, and wonderful programs including performances and educational workshops. You'll find many benefits with your new membership.
We hope to see you very soon!
-Dan Hardin
