Recent seasons have included performances for two regional conventions of the American Guild of Organists, the national convention of The Organ Historical Society, a conclave of the Southeastern Historical Keyboard Society, and the national convention of the Music Teachers National Association. Many recitals have been performed for colleges and universities, AGO chapters, and churches from California to Maine to Florida. Engagements abroad have included recitals in Japan, and in 2007 a series of recitals in Bulgaria. Additionally, he has performed frequently as both organ and harpsichord soloist, and as a continuo player with several prominent orchestras. Dr. Jones holds degrees from Stetson University (BM), where his organ teacher was Paul Jenkins, and from Yale University (MM, MMA, and DMA), where he studied organ with Charles Krigbaum and harpsichord with Richard Rephann, and served as Assistant University Organist and Graduate Teaching Assistant. He has also studied with Harald Vogel at the North German Organ Academy and with Robert Noehren. Dr. Jones has won both national and international organ performance competitions. He has recorded for Arkay Records and Clear Note Records and is represented by WindWerk Artists. STETSON'S PAUL R. JENKINS, JR. ORGAN was built by Rudolf von Beckerath (1907-1976) of Hamburg in 1961. In 1992, the case was altered by Charles Nazarian. In 2004, a thorough cleaning, restoration, and update of the combination action was accomplished by Hans-Ulrich Erbsloh. The instrument, the first of its kind in an American university's performance space, stands today as a testimony to the foresight of Professor Jenkins, and the artistry of Rudolf von Beckerath, now universally recognized as one of the greatest 20th century organ builders.
