Toronto Bach Festival | Noon Organ Recital

Award-winning English keyboardist John Butt takes control of the extraordinary Karl Wilhelm organ at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, located right in the heart of downtown Toronto. It’s fitting that Mr. Butt makes his Toronto Bach Festival debut at the first Presbyterian church in Canada to introduce organ music! Let the sounds of this magnificent music wash over you for this hour-long recital.
Author of several books on the music of J.S. Bach, Mr. Butt is the director of the Dunedin Consort and holds the Gardiner Chair of Music at the University of Glasgow.
