Jean-Willy Kunz : Pipe dreams do come true

If, as Mark Twain said here in 1881, you can’t throw a brick in Montreal without breaking a church window, it must be equally true that you can’t go very far in this once very religious city without stumbling across a pipe organ. And often a damned good one.

Which is what brought Jean-Willy Kunz to Montreal in 2004 at the fairly tender age of 24 – where, in 2006, he began his doctorate in organ performance under Professor (now Emeritus) John Grew at Æ»¹ûÒùÔº. And where, three years ago, he was named the first Organist in Residence with the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal.
