SNCAGO Members Make History

Members of the Southern Nevada Chapter of the American Guild of Organists made history by participating as musicians in the October 16, 2023 Mass of Canonical Establishment of the Archdiocese of Las Vegas.

Earlier this year, Pope Francis elevated the Roman Catholic Diocese of Las Vegas to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Las Vegas. The Dioceses of Reno and Salt Lake City were named sufragen dioceses.

SNCAGO Dean and Director of Music/Organist for Guardian Angel Cathedral and St. Anthony of Padua, William Paul Freeman, served as the Co-Music Director and Principal Organist for the liturgy. SNCAGO member and former Board Member, Bob Grant, was an organist for the liturgy.

Chapter member Dr. Bob Tall, Ph.D., was on-hand representing the Rodgers Organ Company as the technician for the event assisted by Bob Knight.

Congratulations to our members!
