Musical phenom introduces an old instrument to new audiences

Season 2026 Episode 115 | 7m 55s

The pipe organ is typically associated with formal concert halls, church music and traditional works by Baroque composers like Bach. But one musician, Anna Lapwood, is broadening the instrument’s reputation and has gotten millions of people to tune in. Jeffrey Brown and Maine Public went to experience this in Portland as part of our arts and culture series, "CANVAS."
