    Welcome the season with Illumination – A Haunted Concert by Candlelight, where acclaimed theatre organist Ian Fraser performs a program of Halloween-themed music on UCPAC’s “Biggest Little Wurlitzer,” a 1928 instrument still in its original Main Stage home. Between pieces, he shares insight into the organ’s mechanics and history along with the stories behind his selections, creating an experience tailored to music enthusiasts, history lovers, and anyone drawn to something beautifully spooky. Fraser’s connection to mechanical music began in early childhood and led him to the theatre organ as a teenager, where he taught himself to play by ear. He serves as the house silent film organist at several regional venues and is also the house organist at the St. George Theatre, where he regularly plays for audiences of more than 1,500 K–12 students. His accolades include first place in the American Theatre Organ Society’s 2023 Young Theatre Organist Competition. Notably, in June 2025 he performed what is described as the first silent film with live organ accompaniment at a drive-in movie theater for the 100th anniversary of The Phantom of the Opera. He curates a classic and silent film series, restores historic instruments, and holds leadership roles with GSTOS and AMICA. The “Biggest Little Wurlitzer,” celebrated for producing a remarkably large sound from a compact footprint, is listed on the National Registry of Significant Instruments and remains one of New Jersey’s few theatre pipe organs still playing in the venue it was designed for. With 500 pipes and percussion that evoke the depth and color of a full orchestra, its carefully tuned chambers and the auditorium’s acoustics come together to deliver the distinctive theatre organ sound that continues to captivate audiences of all ages.

    Russian Circles

    Union Transfer, 1026 Spring Garden St, Philadelphia · verified Sep 27
    See details

    Chicago-based instrumental trio Russian Circles bring their powerful, exploratory sound to Union Transfer with Pelican. Formed over two decades ago, the lineup of guitarist Mike Sullivan, drummer Dave Turncrantz, and bassist and keyboardist Brian Cook has earned a reputation for consistency and quality without leaning on hit singles. Their music blends Midwest underground grit, classic progressive rock, German motorik and kosmische rhythms, and the caustic edges of metal into a distinct voice. Their latest album, Nine, continues that evolution and was recorded with engineer Kurt Ballou, with tracking at Electrical Audio in Chicago and finishing at GodCity Studio in Salem, Massachusetts. This is an all ages show. A strict ticket limit is in place, and any order that exceeds it may be canceled without notice.
