A native of Yorkshire, England, Max Kenworthy is a freelance organist, pianist, singer and choral conductor based in London. He began his musical career as a chorister at St. Paul’s Cathedral, London and later studied music at Brasenose College, Oxford, where he was also organ scholar. In 2002 Max was appointed Assistant Director of Music at Wellington Cathedral, a post he held for five years before going freelance. During this time he rekindled his interest in jazz by forming a jazz trio who specialized in jazz arrangements of the music of J.S. Bach. Max has made several recordings and has also worked as a concert reviewer and contributor for Radio New Zealand, most recently writing and presenting a programme on the organ works of Messiaen.
Nicholas Grigsby is a New Zealand based concert organist, harpsichordist, broadcaster and academic.

During 2009, he will present recitals and lectures in the USA, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. For the past six years he has regularly presented a range of work on the National Radio network Concert programme in New Zealand. This year, projects have included profiles on composers Roxanna Panufnik and Thomas Adès, as well as an upcoming sequence of interviews with a range of contemporary New Zealand musical personalities. He and his wife Fenella manage a small farm i South Taranaki, on New Zealand’s North Island.
About the Four Hands/Four Feet Concert Tour
Max and Nicholas gave their first organ duet recital together at the Wellington Cathedral of St. Paul, New Zealand, in May 2004. Initially an experiment, the success of this recital led to numerous further performances and a greatly expanded repertoire encompassing the sphere of organ duets, including transcriptions and works specifically conceived for the idiom. They have toured extensively, and their 2008 international tour took them to New Zealand, Australia, Hong Kong, France, Germany and the UK
including concerts at Melbourne Town Hall, The Hong Kong Cultural Centre, Lincoln Cathedral
and Westminster Abbey.

| Performer: | Paul Fejko |
http://www.philadelphiacathedral.org
Contact info: Philadelphia Cathedral
3723 Chestnut Street
(on 38th Street between Market & Chestnut)
Philadelphia PA 19104
Details: Mr Fejko will perform works of J. S. Bach, Felix Mendelssohn and Cesar Franck.
Paul Fejko has always been quite fond of extremes. He can often be found treading on the boundaries of accepted limits and traditions. Art is exploration and provocation; improvisation is a wonderful vehicle for both. He is often chastised for mixing improvisation into repertoire ('taking too many liberties'), but it seems a one way comment; never has there been a charge leveled against the reverse - adding repertoire to improvisation.
Fej finds the pipe organ to be his favorite solo instrument. It can muster more power and subtlety than an entire orchestra while having a responsiveness impossible from a large group of people. He is constantly challenging (often to the point of annoyance!) people to shed their preconceived notions of the organ as merely an instrument of religion, and to realize that in the first half of this century almost every movie house and many concert halls had organs. A good pipe organ is a virtuoso instrument of vast capabilities! Fej divides his time among many endeavors, most notably with theater and dance as a composer and conductor, but also as a concert organist and pianist. To this one must add his work as a sound and lighting designer, photographer (the covers of three of his ARKAY releases - Incantation, Tyme's Escape and OUTBURST!), audio systems designer, auto mechanic and sometime sculptor (witness the cover of ‘On Making the Flowers Dance’ - designed by Fejko with flowers by Gretchen Ernest.
As of this time, he has recorded 13 CDs of large European and American organs, covering a wide range of existing repertoire and his own improvisations. In 2003 Paul Fejko founded and is now the Artistic Director of 'The Chester Performing Arts Project', a foundation dedicated to bringing world class performing arts to the formerly depressed industrial city of Chester, PA. His work with tsunami productions and SafeGuard Lighting Systems in Chester is becoming well known in the region.
Fejko is a product of The Curtis Institute of Music (class of '75) where he studied with Alexander McCurdy, Rudolf Serkin and Max Rudolf. His first taste of opera came at Curtis from Dino Yannapoulos - a long-time stage director at the Met in NY. In 1987, Dino commissioned an opera from Fejko - Matteo Falcone - for the Academy of Vocal Arts in Philadelphia where Dino was Artistic Director at the time. A review of Matteo can be found on the Press/Reviews page at this site.
After Curtis, he connected with renowned dance scholar and pedegogist Nadia Chilkovsky and became music director at her Philadelphia Dance Academy - a source of many well-known dancers from the 50's through the mid 70's. During this time, he spent summers at the famed Marlboro Music Festival. In 1980 he headed east to become a musician with Maurice Béjart's Ballet of the Twentieth Century in Brussels, Belgium. From there he headed south to become Music Director of The Ballet of Lyon in France. During much of the 80's his time was passed between these two positions, but not without many forays into Italy and Germany for work with other smaller theater and dance groups. There were also many various and sundry organ and piano concerts! Because of this he is now able to converse in five languages.
Fej has won first prizes for improvisation in Lyon (1981) and San Anselmo, CA (1990). At their Atlanta convention in 1992, the American Guild of Organists awarded him a second prize.

Details: Ever since 1991, in Timiºoara, under the aegis of The University of West of Timiºoara –The Faculty of Music, have taken place five editions of the festival that, at first, was called “The Days of the Organ Music”, later, due to international participation, changed its denomination into “The International Festival The Days of the Organ Music”. Now, at the sixth edition, the festival received the name TIMORGELFEST, having as subtitle “The Days of the Organ Music from Banat”.
Ever since its first editions, the festival has polarized the interest of the people of Timisoara, owe to a remarkable participation from the following great organists: Lehotka Gabor (Professor of organ at the Academy of Music Frans Liszt, Budapest, Hungary), Jean Luc Salique (France), Horst Gehann, Franz Metz, Dieter Hubov (Germany), Dalibor Miklavcik (Slovenia), Ana Babadjan (Georgia) and also from Romanian prestigious organists like Hans Eckart Schland, Ursula Philippi, Felician Roºca and others.
Each edition, the concerts held by the students at the Organ section from the Faculty of Music from Timiºoara played an important role. The edition of the festival from 2003 was honoured by the participation of students from The Academy of Music Franz Liszt from Budapest and The Academy of Music from Cluj Napoca. Thus, the students from Timiºoara and especially the audience and the teaching staff had the opportunity of becoming familiar with a very elevated organ repertory. The students from The Faculty of Music of Timiºoara benefited from a very useful exchange materialized through concerts and intensive classes with different themes: The Music of the French Romanticism, The Masterpieces of Bach, The Organ Music of the Transylvanian Baroque, The Contemporary Modern Music, The Ornaments and principles of execution and others.
This sixth edition aims at widening the perspective of the place of concerts, aim that will be achieved through a series of concerts in the region of Banatul Montan (the mountain region of Banat) (Reºiþa and Caraºova). A special event will take place on April, 9th, 2005, when, along with the opening of the festival, will be inaugurated the Wegenstein organ from The Romano-Catholic Church “Millenium” of Timisoara, after thourough repairs, thanks to the Pansipp company from Odorheiu Secuiesc.
A second event of great importance marks the creation of a musical work for organ of maestro Eduard Terényi at his 70th anniversary.
More over, part of the festival is dedicated to a series of concerts and conferences that we hope will bring you not only the joy of the organ music but also the satisfaction of appreciating the organ music from Timiºoara as a decisive and formative element in the Eastern European music of the kind.
