PIPES: Messe solennelle
The stunning finale of Trinity’s PIPES concert series
Illustrating the dramatic range of the new pipe organ, Trinity organist Avi Stein and organ scholar Alex Leonardi will perform Louis Vierne’s stunningly grandiose Messe solennelle — a piece that explores the depths of the organ’s colors and sonic possibilities — in concert with Trinity Choir. The evening’s tour of the rich legacy of French music will also feature the work of three of Vierne’s preeminent pupils: Nadia Boulanger, her younger sister Lili Boulanger, and Marcel Dupré.
