The American Guild of Organists is a national organization headquartered in New York City with a membership of some 20,000 organists, choral conductors, church and synagogue musicians, organ builders, and organ “buffs,” each of whom is a member of one of 330 local chapters throughout the United States and as far away as Bermuda, Korea, Singapore, and even Australia.
The Denver Chapter of the American Guild of Organists has regular monthly meetings from September through June which vary from concerts and recitals to educational events and social gatherings. The Denver chapter, which was formed in 1936 and hosted national AGO conventions in 1968 and 1998, also regularly sponsors such educational activities as Pipe Organ Encounters and Pipes, Pedals, and Pizza for young people, professional AGO certification workshops for members, and master classes for performers of all ages. It also offers annual scholarships providing up to eight promising young area piano students with six free organ lessons each.
