ABOUT THE HOLLAND AREA CHAPTER OF THE AMERICAN GUILD OF ORGANISTS

       The Holland Area Chapter of the American Guild of Organists was formed in September of 1985.  It is a group of organists, music directors, and organ enthusiasts that exists to promote the organ in its historic and evolving roles, to encourage excellence in the performance of organ and choral music, and to provide a forum for mutual support, inspiration, education, and certification of Guild members.

    
The American Guild of Organists (AGO) is the national professional association serving the organ and choral music fields. The Guild serves approximately 20,000 members in 330 chapters throughout the United States, Europe, Asia, and Australia.  Founded in 1896 as both an educational and service organization, the Guild seeks to set and maintain high musical standards and to promote understanding and appreciation of all aspects of organ and choral music.
