Valliant, organist
Back by
popular demand, Brett Valliant returns to us from Wichita to play First-Trinity’s
Aeolian-Skinner during the screening of two great silent films. Brett
is the artist-in-residence for Wichita Theatre Organ Inc. where he plays
the world famous New York Paramount Wurlitzer Organ installed in Century
II Civic Center. He is known for playing dramatic films such as King of
Kings, Phantom of the Opera, The Ten Commandments, and The Eagle, but has
also scored numerous comedies for the Harold Lloyd Foundation. Valliant
plays annually for several film festivals including the International Film
Festival, hosted by the American Film Institute. He is organist at
First United Methodist Church, Wichita, where he plays the largest pipe
organ in Kansas. This is an event for the whole family!
