Laurent Jochum from Paris, France presents a spectacular program of organ music well-suited for the 1864 Hook Organ at Worcester's Mechanics Hall. He will present works by Bach, Mendelssohn, Franck, Barber, Boëllmann, and Takle.

Holder of the great Cavaille-Col organ of the Saint Jean Baptiste church in Belleville, Paris, where he succeeds great musicians like Pierre Vidal; and, holder of the organ of the middle and high school chapel Saint Louis-de-Gonzague, Laurent Jochum has had a particularly eclectic career over twenty years.

This free concert is presented by Mechanics Hall and the Worcester Chapter of the American Guild of Organists.
