He has been an adjudicator and guest recitalist for the Swiss International Organ Competition in Geneva, Switzerland.&nbsp;&nbsp;Nordwall has also performed numerous programs on the Spreckels organ in San Diego’s Balboa Park as part of their International Artist Series.The Organ:&nbsp;The organ installed at St. Andrew’s was custom designed for the church and it incorporates the original 31 rank Simpson Pipe Organ that has served our church for many years. In addition to incorporating the original pipes, an Allen GX350 adds 66 Digital Stops along with Allen Organ’s APEX floating point technology which provides 65 times more resolution than existing fixed point systems. That is a lot of fancy technical stuff to say that this organ is beyond impressive. Reception to follow.
