Gavin Klein was artist-in-residence at the Harvard Historical Society from 2020 to 2022, keeping the newly restored 1870 Stevens organ in tune and in use.

Gavin Klein serves as the Organ Scholar at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts, class of 2026.

A native of Massachusetts, Klein has served as organist to various religious congregations in Central Massachusetts and Boston. Notable positions include organist at St. Cyprian’s Church in Boston, Rollstone Congregational Church in Fitchburg, and for the Sisters of St. Benedict Center (MICM) in Still River, Massachusetts. In addition to his responsibilities at Holy Cross, Klein currently serves as organist at St. Bernard’s Church at Our Lady of Providence Parish in Worcester, and regularly plays for the Trappist Monks at St. Joseph’s Abbey in Spencer, Massachusetts.

In January 2020, Klein marked a significant milestone in his career by presenting the first organ recital at the newly opened Epsilon Spires Performing Arts Center in Brattleboro, Vermont. The event showcased the renowned Estey Opus 300 Organ, a distinguished instrument built by the Estey Organ Company with a storied 109-year history. Since then, he has continued to give performances across the United States and Europe, including notable venues such as Woolsey Hall at Yale University, Mechanics Hall in Worcester, Iglesia San Juan Bautista in Buenos Aires, Argentina, St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, England, the Salzburger Dom in Salzburg, Austria, il Duomo de Santi Pietro e Paolo in Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, Italy, and the Maria Gebört Kirche in Rottenbuch, Germany.


Gavin is an active member of both the Boston and Worcester Chapters of the American Guild of Organists, as well as the Organ Historical Society.
