Bradley Hunter Welch comes to Coshocton to play on the extraordinary Taylor & Boody Tracker Organ. Playing this organ is an athletic endeavor. There are no mechanical devises between the organist’s fingers & feet, keys & pedals, and the valves that open to let the air flow through the pipes. You don’t need to be an organ aficionado to enjoy the rigors of this performance.

Mr. Welch promises to play a good helping of Bach and Buxtehude and likely a couple of piece by William Albright (Nocturne and Jig for the Feet).

artist bio

“To invoke an old Southern expression, Bradley Hunter Welch plays the organ like nobody’s business. Between the virtuosity of the playing and the easy going spoken commentary, he also proved that ‘entertainer’ and ‘organist’ needn’t be mutually exclusive…” (Dallas Morning News)

Bradley Hunter Welch is increasingly in demand as a recitalist, concerto soloist, and collaborative artist. A native of Knoxville, TN, Bradley holds the Doctor of Musical Arts, Master of Musical Arts, Master of Music degrees, and the Artist Diploma from Yale University where he studied with Thomas Murray and Martin Jean.
