Organist Filsell Performs at All Saints’ Chapel Tonight

Jeremy Filsell, acknowledged as one of only a few virtuoso performers on both piano and organ, will perform at 7:30 p.m. (tonight) Friday, Nov. 22, in All Saints’ Chapel as part of the University of the South’s Performing Arts Series. 

Filsell was an organ scholar at Keble College Oxford and as a graduate, he studied piano at the Royal College of Music, later completing a Ph.D. at Birmingham Conservatoire. He has taught at the Royal Academy of Music in London and at universities, summer schools and conventions in both the U.K. and U.S., and has performed around the world. He now combines international performing and teaching activities with being artist-in-residence at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C.

Gramophone magazine has called Filsell’s recordings of Marcel Dupré’s complete organ works “one of the greatest achievements in organ recording.”

Tickets are $25 for adults, $20 for seniors and $10 for students. (Admission is free with University of the South ID.) For more information go to <perform​ingarts.sewanee.edu/>.
