NMM Live! | Marie Rubis Bauer - Vermillion

Nov 14, 2025 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

The National Music Museum presents organist Marie Rubis Bauer, Archdiocesan Director of Music and Cathedral Organist at Saint Cecilia Cathedral in Omaha, in a special performance on the Museum’s rare 1808 Dieffenbach organ (NMM 04905). Built in Bethel, Pennsylvania, and originally installed in Zion Lutheran & Reformed Church in Orwigsburg, this towering Pennsylvania-German tracker organ stands nearly 12 feet tall, features 306 pipes, and is one of only seven Dieffenbach organs still in existence—the only one preserved in a major public collection. The concert will take place in the Richard Cutler Gallery, where the instrument is featured as part of the NMM’s Music & Spirituality exhibition. Audiences are invited to experience the remarkable sound of this historic organ in the hands of a distinguished performer whose career has spanned major concert venues in the U.S. and Europe, with performances hailed for their artistry and depth of interpretation.
