An Overview

POEA is for young people aged 13-18 who have achieved a high level of success in organ study.

It provides daily organ lessons and intermediate-to-advanced classes in areas such as organ literature, history, pipe organ construction and design, improvisation and other related topics.

Most of all, POEA provides a unique opportunity for participants to meet and interact with peers who have similar interests.
