Triptych

There has probably never been a trio like the one-man keyboard orchestra Paul Halley has created for "Triptych," over-dubbing piano, harpsichord, and a pipe organ with nearly 4,500 pipes. Playing music that is at once vibrant and intricately contrapuntal, he deploys the instruments with a symphonic sense

of coloration. A member of the Paul Winter Consort and former organist of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in Manhattan, Halley draws upon the eclectic vision those tenures suggest, including elements of classical and Celtic music, folk songs, and fantasies in his compositions. Halley's sound is lyrical without being maudlin, and while a pipe organ would lead some to bombast, Halley rarely indulges himself. Instead, he lets the songs themselves, like "Rejoicing" and "Shores Of Ironbound," lift to the rafters. Contact 877-735-2467.
