I don’t want to hear any excuses

You should be able to make it to at least one of these concerts. The New York Sun is reporting that organist Gail Archer will be playing the complete Messiaen organ book over the next five months. Totally hot. Totally fierce. I can’t imagine a better plan than to chillax on a Sunday afternoon in a gorgeous church, listening to the esoteric organ works of a crazy-religious ornithologist composer French dude.
