On this episode of The KC Arts Beat Report, Patrick Neas sits down with Mario Pearson, Director of Music at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, and Jan Kraybill, one of Kansas City’s most admired organists, for a lively conversation about the upcoming three-hour French Organ Music Festival on August 23 beginning at 2 PM. They discuss how the festival began, why the Cathedral’s unique Ruffatti organ is so perfectly suited to French music, and what makes this annual event such a beloved tradition for performers and audiences alike. The concert is free and open to the public. There will be a reception after the final performance.
