Eric Plutz
Organ recital by Princeton University Organist; free admission
January 25, 2027 at 1:30:00 AM
Tickets on sale this August.
Princeton University Organist Eric Plutz comes to St. James by-the-Sea for a free 5:30 pm organ recital. Known for clarity, color, and a command of large symphonic instruments, Plutz brings the perspective of a musician who plays weekly in one of America's great university chapels. His recital will spotlight the Rosales/Parsons organ as both a liturgical instrument and a concert instrument: capable of grandeur, subtlety, and the sort of sonic fireworks that make organists grin in public.
