Douglas Murray, English, was recently invited to improvise three organ chorale preludes in the style of J. S. Bach at the 2016 meeting of the Association of Lutheran Church Musicians in Franklin, Tennessee.
The subject of the conference was “Bach for Everyone,” featuring the heritage of Lutheranism’s greatest composer. Murray has also been selected as one of three finalists in the University of Michigan Improvisation Competition to be held on 2 October in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
