Skinner organ concert planned at Lake Erie College

Lake Erie College’s Department of Music will present a Skinner organ concert on Feb. 24 by LEC’s organist-in-residence, Todd Wilson.

Wilson will perform on the restored 1927 E.M. Skinner pipe organ, Opus 647, in the Helen Rockwell Morley Memorial Music Building at 4 p.m. Selections will include compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach, David Conte and Charles-Marie Widor.

In addition to his work at LEC, Wilson serves as head of the Organ Department at Cleveland Institute of Music, curator of the E.M. Skinner pipe organ at Severance Hall in Cleveland (home of the Cleveland Orchestra), director of music at Trinity Cathedral in Cleveland and house organist for the Aeolian organ at Stan Hywet Hall in Akron.

In 2006, Lake Erie College celebrated the restoration of its E.M. Skinner pipe organ with a performance by Wilson. He performed again to celebrate the restoration’s 10th anniversary in 2016.
