The Royal Canadian College of Organists has conferred upon Fernand Létourneau, founder and president of Orgues Létourneau, Limitée, its Award of Excellence. Given for a significant contribution to the promotion and value of the organ and its music in Canada, Létourneau was singled out as “one of the finest organ builders in the world,” and it was noted that the company’s instruments “reflect artistic excellence in every respect, including exquisite voicing.”
Fernand Létourneau received this prize on July 13 as part of the convocation at this year’s RCCO’s convention in Kingston, Ontario.
