Our beloved organ turns 100 this year! We will be celebrating with monthly concerts featuring organists from around the world who will showcase the extraordinary capabilities of this amazing instrument.


Sunday, November 15th

at 3:00 pm



This Sunday, November 15th at 3:00 pm we will host the final recital to celebrate the centennial anniversary of our magnificent Casavant organ, Op. 1130. Throughout this year, we have been blessed to hold eight organ concerts featuring fourteen organists from both the United States and Europe.


I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who made this possible, starting with our wonderful audience who attended the concerts. My thanks also extend to our sponsors, including the Italian Institute of Culture in Chicago, the Chicago Chapter of the American Guild of Organists, the Organ Historical Society Chicago Midwest Chapter, and Casavant Frères.


I would also like to thank our General Superior, Fr. Caswell, our Pastor, Fr. Yallaly, and our wonderful team at St. Cantius for their support and invaluable assistance.


Finally, a special acknowledgment goes to Mr. Richard Ryan, without whom none of this would have been possible.
