Join us for this Schneebeck Organ Series concert performed by American concert organist Wyatt Smith. This is the final program of the year featuring music by Dietrich Buxtehude, and Johann Sebastian Bach, inspired by Bach's 200-mile trek to study with Buxtehude in 1705.

This concert is presented as part of the School of Music Keyboard Series, and is free and open to the public. The Keyboard Series, now in its fourth year, features a dynamic lineup of charismatic guest artists. For more information, visit pugetsound.edu/jacobsen.
