His repertoire spans the music of Johann Sebastian Bach\, the great French symphonic masters\, the late-Romantic organ tradition\, and organ transcriptions of orchestral works. \nAfter beginning his musical studies in Alba\, he continued his training in France with Jean-Paul Imbert at the Schola Cantorum in Paris\, where he was awarded the Diplôme de Concert with highest distinction (Très bien à l’unanimité et félicitations du jury). He subsequently earned the Diplôme d’Études Musicales from the Conservatoire de Versailles\, receiving First Prize in Basso Continuo unanimously awarded by the jury\, and pursued studies in organ improvisation with Pierre Pincemaille at the Conservatoire de Saint-Maur. He graduated cum laude in Organ and Organ Composition from the “Giorgio Federico Ghedini” Conservatory of Cuneo under Bartolomeo Gallizio and further refined his artistry through masterclasses with Jean-Paul Imbert\, Massimo Nosetti\, Olivier Latry\, and David Briggs. \nAs a recitalist\, he has performed extensively throughout Italy and Europe\, appearing in major churches\, cathedrals\, and concert venues across Vatican City and in Switzerland\, France\, Germany\, Belgium\, Spain\, Poland\, and the United Kingdom. He has also collaborated with the Orchestra Sinfonica di Alba. Alongside his concert activity\, Studer is particularly active as a transcriber for the organ. His organ transcription of Alexander Borodin’s symphonic poem In the Steppes of Central Asia was published by Armelin Musica (Padua) and subsequently recorded for the BNL and Quantum labels. He has recorded a CD dedicated to the music of Enrico Pasini and participated in the complete recording of Jean-Paul Imbert’s organ transcriptions. \nGabriele Studer is titular organist of the Church of Cristo Re in Alba and teaches organ and composition at the Civic Musical Institute “Lodovico Rocca”. \n\n\n\nUpcoming Concerts\n\n\nAugust 2\nLynn Trapp – Baltimore\, MD\n\n\nAugust 9\nJohn Mitchell – Reston\, VA\n\n\nAugust 16\nAndy Brown – Philadelphia\, PA\n\n\nAugust 23\nPeter Latona – Washington\, D.C.\n\n\nAugust 30\nAdam Chlebek – Washington\, D.C.

SUMMARY:A Hymn in Stone: Sacred Music from the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception
DESCRIPTION:As part of the National Association of Pastoral Musicians 2026 Convention\, the Choir of the Basilica will present a concert entitled: A Hymn in Stone – Sacred Music from the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. Join us on Tuesday\, July 21\, at 7:00 p.m.\, for this evening of sacred music in the Great Upper Church of the Basilica. \nConcert Description:\nIn the January 1914 issue of the National Shrine’s newsletter Salve Regina\, Bishop Shahan envisioned the building of the National Shrine as “a monument of love and gratitude\, a great hymn in stone\, embodying forever the purest and sweetest affections of the Catholic heart and consecrating them in one changeless act of praise and joy\, as perfect as the art of man can make it and as holy as the intentions of its builders could wish it to be.” \nInspired by that vision\, the musicians of the Basilica will present a concert entitled A Hymn in Stone. The program will feature the diverse modes of expression that comprise music-making at the National Shrine: from the 56 bells of the Knights Tower Carillon soaring 329 feet above\, to the nearly 10\,000 pipes of the great organs in the South and West galleries\, to the voices of the Choir of the Basilica\, as well as the voices of the faithful gathered beneath the mosaics of the Great Upper Church. The program will feature hymns\, psalms\, motets\, and organ compositions both ancient and modern\, including works by the Basilica’s Director of Music and NPM Pastoral Musician Award recipient Dr. Peter Latona. \nListeners will experience music shaped by the Shrine’s distinctive aesthetic\, lift their own voices in song\, and depart with renewed vision and inspiration for their own music ministry. \nJust as music resonates through limestone\, granite\, and marble\, we\, the Church\, become the living stones through which the praise of God resounds\, echoing the words of Scripture: “Like living stones\, let yourselves be built into a spiritual house\,” (1 Peter 2:5). \n\nDownload the Program
