Dr. Karl E. Moyer’s pipe organ music returns to the United Methodist Church in Millersville.

Pipe organ at the United Methodist Church

Back by popular demand, Dr. Karl E. Moyer, professor emeritus of music, will host the organ music for meditation series at the First United Methodist Church on the Millersville campus. Moyer, along with guest organists, will play pipe organ music to inspire meditation.

The series began on February 20 and runs every Wednesday, from 12:15 p.m. to 12:45 p.m., through March 27, excluding  March 20 (spring break). The events are free and open to the public.  Attendees are invited to come and go as they please.

The two-manual pipe organ was built in 1883 by William A. Johnson and Son firm of Westburn, Mass. In 1971, Moyer was a consultant for its move to the A-Frame building, and in 1976 it was featured in the National Convention of the Organ Historical Society.
