Trinity Episcopal Church in Everett will host a free dedication recital of its new pipe organ tonight with internationally acclaimed concert organist David DiFiore.
DiFiore has earned numerous national and international awards. A pupil of French organist Odile Pierre, DiFiore has appeared as recitalist, conductor, accompanist and clinician throughout the U.S., Mexico and Europe.
His recording of French music for Ambassador Records, “Les Amoureux de l’Orgue,” and two of his Slovak recordings, “The Grand Organ of the Castle Church in Kremnica, Volumes 1 and 2,” have been widely broadcast.
With his strong background in French Romantic music, DiFiore is known for producing works with tremendous flair. DiFiore is director of Music Ministries at Seattle’s University Temple United Methodist Church.
He will play on Trinity’s reconfigured pipe organ, a Balcom and Vaughan organ found in Spokane in excellent condition, which the church purchased and restored through a fundraising campaign.
The organ was reconfigured to use as much of the original pipework as possible. The relatively small church, with stone, brick and hardwood floors, provides wonderful acoustics for the organ’s rich sound.
The dedication recital and reception begins at 7:30 tonight at Trinity Episcopal Church, 2301 Hoyt Ave., Everett. The recital is free, though donations will be accepted. For more information, call the church office at 425-252-4129.
