Named 2011 “Organist of the Year” by the American Theatre Organ Society, Dave Wickerham has a lifetime of experience in the organ industry. Born in Encino, California Dave began his musical journey at only four years old playing an electric pipe organ, eventually graduating to pipe organs at the age of seven. Dave studied classical organ studies on a full scholarship at the University of Arizona with Dr. Roy Johnson for six years.

Throughout his career, Wickerham has traveled both internationally to Australia and around the United States to perform at organist conventions.

The San Diego Early Music Society is proud to present award-winning French keyboard virtuoso Benjamin Alard in a series of two all-Bach recitals. The first one, on harpsichord, will be nothing less than the complete first book of the "Well Tempered Clavier" which Mr Alard just recorded as part of his complete J.S. Bach keyboard works series for Harmonia Mundi. Of his recordings, The Classic Review writes, “Alard creates an…enthralling performance, with subtle variances in timbre and a masterful management of…accumulating power….[T]he series…will undoubtedly be one of the most important recording projects of this century.” Stay Social!

Thursday, Oct. 28, 2021 AT 7:00 p.m. at The San Diego Natural History Museum About the film: Ravi and Rita dutifully go on an arranged blind date. He’s awkward and sincere, while she’s respectfully present, all to get through the ritual of appeasing their traditional Indian parents. And then COVID strikes! Their phones buzz with news about a stay-at-home order, public transportation is suspended, and they’re stuck together on a date that knows no end—and in quarantine, polite gloves start coming off and it starts getting real. Physician-turned-screenwriter Roshan Sethi proves to be the perfect director of the shelter-in-place rom-com, capturing the hilarity and anxiety of our pandemic hearts and spirits. Admission includes outdoor post-screening reception. Screening tickets available here.
