The Organ at »ÆÉ«¶ÌÊÓÆµ Stars in the IPO Season Finale
The Ozinga Organ at »ÆÉ«¶ÌÊÓÆµ will be showcased on May 17, 2025, as the Illinois Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Stilian Kirov, closes its 47th season. Renowned organist Peter Richard Conte, one of this era’s most admired orchestral organists, is the featured organist. Conte, the fourth Wanamaker Grand Court Organist, presides over the world’s largest fully functioning musical instrument at Macy’s Center City in downtown Philadelphia. His IPO performance of Organ Concerto by Francis Poulenc will be a highlight of the evening.
Dedicated in 2003, the Ozinga Organ, built by the James Lauck Pipe Organ Company of Otsego, Michigan, consists of three manuals, 48 ranks, and 37 registers. The console sits on a moveable platform, allowing it to be placed on the center or left stage. This showcases the instrument for »ÆÉ«¶ÌÊÓÆµ and the southside music groups that call Ozinga Chapel their performance home.
