2016-01-29 - The organ was made possible through a major gift from the Rev. D. Stuart Dunnan, a 1977 graduate of the school, and his parents, in memory of Donald R. Baldwin. The dedicatory weekend took place April 25-26, 1988, and began with a recital by Richard Clemmitt, an alumnus of St. Albans and of the New England Conservatory. The following afternoon, the organ was blessed at a Festival Evensong featuring the school's Madrigal Singers in Britten's Rejoice in the Lamb and the premiere of an organ prelude entitled Elegy, composed for the occasion by Richard Roeckelein, chapel organist and chairman of the music department of the Cathedral Schools. That evening, music for organ and brass was played by William Niel and members of the National Symphony Orchestra. -Database Manager
