GREG ZELEK, organ

Praised as “extraordinary in the classical music world” (Jon Hornbacher, PBS Wisconsin Life) and a “musical star” (Bill Wineke, Channel 3000), Greg Zelek is the Principal Organist of the Madison Symphony Orchestra and the Elaine and Nicholas Mischler Curator of the Overture Concert Organ, positions he has held since 2017.

Greg concertizes with the Madison Symphony Orchestra and throughout the United States. In addition, Greg regularly performs with orchestras as both a soloist and professional ensemble member. Highlights of the 2019–2020 season included three performances of Barber’s Toccata Festiva with the Madison Symphony Orchestra, recitals at the Oregon Bach Festival and the Kimmel Center in Verizon Hall, a return appearance with the Jacksonville Symphony as the featured guest soloist, as well as performances at venues in Virginia, Florida, Colorado, and Kentucky.

In 2016, Greg was chosen by The Diapason magazine as one of the top “20 Under 30” organists, a feature which selects the most successful young artists in the field. He was the First Prize winner in the 2012 Rodgers North American Classical Organ Competition, the 2012 West Chester University Organ Competition, and the 2010 East Carolina University Organ Competition.

A recipient of the inaugural Kovner Fellowship, Greg received his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees, as well as an Artist Diploma, from the Juilliard School as a student of Paul Jacobs. Before moving to Madison, Greg was most recently the Music Director and Organist at the Episcopal Church of St. Matthew and St. Timothy in New York City. A Cuban-American and native Spanish speaker from Miami, FL, Greg became the Music Director and Organist of Corpus Christi Catholic Church in Miami at age 15, and has served as the summer organist for San Pedro Apostol Church in Ramales de la Victoria, Spain.

ADOPT-A-STOP Thank you to these generous donors for their gifts of $1,000 or more to the Madison Symphony Orchestra’s Overture Concert Organ Endowment Fund. Donors who have chosen to adopt individual parts of the organ are listed with their individual adoptions.

A VISION FOR THE FUTURE of the OVERTURE CONCERT ORGAN

In 2004, Pleasant T. Rowland gave the magnificent Overture Concert Organ as a gift to the Madison Symphony Orchestra. Lead gifts of $1 million from Diane Endres Ballweg and $500,000 from an anonymous donor established the Organ Endowment Fund, a permanent fund which helps support Overture Concert Organ programming and care of the instrument.

To help ensure the instrument will continue to be heard by future generations, the MSO and Friends of the Overture Concert Organ are seeking an additional $500,000 for the organ endowment.

Currently, less than $237,000 is needed to reach this goal!

“Madison is so blessed to have the Madison Symphony Orchestra’s ‘Mighty Klais’ in Overture Hall. It is a complex, wonderful instrument, and we wish all future generations to experience the pure joy in sound that it can produce.”

–Nicholas and Elaine Mischler Tutti Donors
