The Juilliard School Organ Department presents… – with Paul Jacobs

12,00 

The Juillard School in New York is one of the most important performing arts training institutions in the world, and its organ department is headed by Paul Jacobs, a personality who was described in the New Yorker as “one of the leading musicians of our time.”
In this film, Paul Jacobs takes us, among other places, to Paul Hall at Juilliard, where he and some of the students in the organ class present us with a
eclectic program.
Paul Jacobs is a citizen of the world on the organ. He has performed on five continents and in all 50 US states. As a 23-year-old, he played Bach’s complete works in an 18-hour concert marathon – but his gigantic repertoire includes old as well as new music. He is the only organist to have received a Grammy Award (in 2011 for a Messiaen album). He has taught at New York’s renowned Juillard School since 2003, serving as head of the organ department since 2004. In 2017, he received an honorary doctorate from Washington and Jefferson College. In 2021, the American Guild of Organists named him “International Performer of the Year”.
