The Fabulous Fritts
Saturdays at 7 PM
Host:    Guy Whatley
March 2010

 
   

The Fabulous Fritts offers performances on the magnificent Paul Fritts and Company organ. Designed on historical principles and adaptable to many styles of music - especially those of Bach and his contemporaries - the Fritts was installed in 1992 in the Arizona State University School of Music Organ Hall built especially for its use. It has already achieved legendary stature among organists throughout the nation, and each year several of them travel to Tempe to perform on it before the packed houses that are a hallmark of ASU's Organ Concert series. Their performances, and those of Arizona's top organists, make The Fabulous Fritts an enjoyable gateway to the world of "the royal instrument."
