Ronald Wyatt, Director of Music

 

 

Ronald Wyatt, internationally acclaimed concert organist, has been the Director of Music for Trinity Episcopal Church since 1975.

 

Mr. Wyatt holds degrees from the University of Texas and Trinity University, where he was awarded the Master of Arts degree in organ. He spent a year in Europe as a student of the celebrated Marie-Claire Alain, with whom he performed on network television. He was also a student of Marie-Madeleine Duruflé, the noted concert organist and wife of one of the twentieth century’s greatest composers, Maurice Duruflé.

 

Mr. Wyatt has played numerous recitals throughout the United States and Europe, in addition to holding professional posts in churches of various denominations. He was a founder of the first statewide organ playing competition in Texas, which draws students to San Antonio each year to compete for scholarships. He has also been featured in a weekly

radio series, and has participated in oratorio accompaniment and master classes at colleges and universities.

 

The scope of his musical activities ranges from his weekly duties directing the choir and playing the organ during Sunday service at Trinity Church to performing Bach’s Brandenburg Concerti on the harpsichord with orchestra to playing the calliope in a parade celebrating the birthday of Queen Elizabeth II.

 

Mr. Wyatt is truly one of Trinity's finest treasures and we greatly cherish him.
