Internationally acclaimed organist and composer Leon Tscholl from Karlsruhe in Germany will play in Kilcullen Parish Church tomorrow, Saturday evening, before, during and after the 6.30pm Vigil Mass, writes Brian Byrne.

This will follow his performance this evening, Friday 16 August, in St Brigid's Cathedral Kildare, where he will be playing from the works of Bach, Mendelssohn, Brahms and Franck.

Organist and organ enthusiast Peter Moloney, who arranged the Kilcullen visit, says that as far as he knows, it is the first time a musician of Tscholl's international stature has played the John White organ in the church.

Peter is currently running a fundraising campaign to refurbish and upgrade the organ.
