We are thrilled to announce an extraordinary musical event coming to Lawrence, Kansas, that promises to be nothing short of historic. In a performance that commemorates the 125th Anniversary of the Organ and Church Music Program at the University of Kansas School of Music, world-renowned organist Olivier Latry will take center stage at the Bales Organ Recital Hall. Latry's talent is unparalleled, and his performance promises to be a memorable experience for all attendees.

Don't miss this exceptional opportunity to witness Olivier Latry, the William T. Kemper Artist-in-Residence at KU, as he graces Lawrence with his remarkable talent. Latry's final two recitals as the William T. Kemper Artist-in-Residence at KU will be on October 27, 2023, and a concluding recital in the spring semester of 2024.  

Latry's journey to Lawrence is all the more significant as it comes following his displacement due to the tragic Notre-Dame Cathedral fire. As one of the world's leading organists, his performances have enchanted audiences globally, and his presence in Lawrence is indeed a musical gift.
