Every day

Improve your organ skills at the 2014 Conference of the Fellowship of American Baptist Church Musicians (Green Lake Conference Grounds, Green Lake, WI)

Goal

Through the leadership of the Organ Clinician a conferee can enhance their organ technique, participate in instruction, expand their knowledge of organ repertory, and discuss all aspects of both the organ and organists in worship.

The Organ section of the Conference for Church Musicians gives the participant an opportunity to study with a national clinician in the areas of performance and repertoire, while sharing thoughts and ideas with fellow organists.
