WELCOME TO THE ORGAN SOCIETY OF QUEENSLAND

An appreciation of organ music and organs in the QLD community

About Us

Founded in 1952 by pipe organ music enthusiasts.  The Organ Society of Queensland aims to promote an appreciation of organ music and organs in the community, and to provide an avenue for discussion of matters of mutual interest to organists. ​

Our Vision

The Organ Society of Queensland wishes to encourage all people to study the organ, particularly in the special art of organ playing.

 

We share a great enthusiasm for the organ and organ music, whether you are starting the instrument, or wishing to advance your studies.

Our vision is to improve the public appreciation and understanding of the organ.
