The Ronald G. Pogorzelski and Lester D. Yankee Memorial Scholarships are intended to support the education of talented young organists who will make significant contributions to the fields of organ playing and organ studies. Applicants are expected to have existing talent and achievements in the field of organ playing and an expressed commitment to post-graduation teaching, performing, or other serious endeavor with respect to the organ.
The AGO Organ Scholar Program will offer a young person the opportunity to experience a one-year internship within a significant music ministry program in the United States. This gap year program between a student’s undergraduate and graduate studies will take place during the 2022–2023 and 2023–2024 program years. There will be one recipient per year for a total of two recipients in two different locations. One scholar will be hosted by Duke Chapel.

My son is applying for an Organ degree at Belmont here in Nashville. He currently plays at several churches, weddings, and special events. He is trying to put several scholarships and grants together to go to Belmont which has an organ degree but not many people go after that. Is there a way he can apply to you for assistance? Any help is appreciated.
