Christopher Houlihan
(Trinity College, Hartford, Connecticut)
The young American musician Christopher Houlihan is widely acknowledged as one of the brightest stars in the new generation of organists, praised by the media as “gifted” (New York Times), “dazzling” (Wall Street Journal), and “eloquent” (Los Angeles Times). Still in his 20's, Houlihan's international performing career is well underway, having performed in celebrated venues in major cities across North America and Europe, as well as at numerous conventions of the American Guild of Organists and the Organ Historical Society. Houlihan lives in New York City, and is Artist-in-Residence at Trinity College, Hartford, Connecticut.
