Theresa Pepin

Theresa Pepin, organist, performs on the historic B Rule Organ Opus 8 at the Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church in Knoxville, TN, USA. Original components of the 2-manual/25-rank mechanical action tracker organ date back to 1891.

Funding for the performance was provided, in part, by a professional artist support grant under an agreement with the Tennessee Arts Commission and the National Endowment for the Arts. Selections were chosen to showcase the versatility of this instrument.

Repertory includes that of French, English, German, American and International composers for the organ.
