About The Event
On the occasion of his 80th birthday, we welcome back to the museum organist Karel Paukert. In his thirty years at the Cleveland Museum of Art, Paukert performed innumerable concerts and presented artists from around the world, having built and maintained a legacy of first-class and wide-ranging music programs.
For this special recital, Paukert will perform Olivier Messiaen’s masterpiece La Nativité du Seigneur, a set of nine “meditations” inspired by the birth of Jesus.

These programs made possible in part by the Ernest L. and Louise M. Gartner Fund, the P. J. McMyler Musical Endowment Fund, and the Anton and Rose Zverina Music Fund.
