Dear Reader,

Welcome to the website of the District of Columbia Chapter of the American Guild of Organists!

Next to its glorious monuments and museums, a richly varied theater life, and very active choral organizations, the nation's capital also features a lively organ community, to which our Chapter members contribute significantly. Visitors are always welcome to our programs, and, in the course of time, this website will become a comprehensive source of information on the Washington, DC organ scene.

Perhaps you found this site because you are interested in becoming a member of the Chapter. We would be delighted if you would join our ranks, and the Membership Form page link offers a simple way to proceed. We also welcome dual members!

To celebrate its centennial, the Chapter will host the 2010 National Convention of the American Guild of Organists. The last time this event took place here was in 1982, and a lot has changed since then in our city - and mostly for the better! The organ community has gone through its own revitalization, as important instruments from the last two decades show, with more to come.

These are exciting times for our Chapter! We welcome any and all who can contribute in any way to the Chapter's programs or to the great project of the 2010 National Convention.

We look forward to hearing from you.

For the Chapter,
Ronald Stolk, Dean
