Internationally recognized organist Dr. Michael Ging garners critical and
audience acclaim for his virtuosic technique, sensitive interpretations, and
charismatic stage presence. The American Organist hailed his recital opening the
2015 L'Organo Recital Series as "flawless," noting that his program "showed off
instrument and player to perfection," recognizing his "fine style," and describing
his interpretation of Töpfer's Sonata in D Minor as "a rare gem." His performance
career sees him in major venues in Europe and North America, notably the
Orgelkunst Series in Magdeburg Cathedral and L'Église de la Madeleine (Paris).
His recent domestic recitals were in Dallas, Houston, Excelsior, St. Paul,
Worcester, Charleston, Princeton, Austin, Washington, Spartanburg, Atlanta, and
Santa Fe. His festival credits include the 11th International Organ and Early Music
Festival (Oaxaca), the Leipzig in Houston Festival, the Houston Early Music
Festival, and three recitals for L'Organo (2009, 2015, and as a replacement artist
with 2 days’ notice in 2017). He holds the Doctor of Musical Arts from the
University of Houston, Master of Music from Rice University, and Bachelor of
Music from the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. He is Director of Music & Parish
Organist at All Saints Church, Winter Park, Florida. Michael Ging is the founder
and represented by Seven Eight Artists.
