Organ Concert Lovers Will Love This

The Mighty Wurlitzer Organ at the Grand Rapids Public Museum fires up again with a  concert by Justin Stahl on Friday, October 23 and Saturday, October 24. Performing his work, “A Little Bit of This, A Little Bit of That,” Stahl will feature a variety of theatre organ works that he has played for thousands before.

Stahl is a native of Beech Grove, Indiana. Beginning at age five, he taught himself piano and organ with much encouragement from his great-grandfather. Now, a graduate of Marian University with a Bachelor’s degree in piano performance, he has been  accompanying several choral departments, contributing as his church’s music director, playing for community theatre and serving for over thirteen years in the Indiana Army National Guard’s 38th Infantry Division Band.

Stahl has most recently played with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra in the last four productions of their annual Yuletide Celebration, playing the 3/24 Wurlitzer installed at the Hilbert Circle Theatre.

Shows will be held at 7:00 p.m. on Friday, October 23 and at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 24 in the Meijer Theater at the GRPM. Tickets for individual concerts are $10 for the general public, $8 for Museum members, and $5 for children 17 and under.
