Nicholas Capozzoli has established himself as a solo organist, collaborative artist, and scholar with great distinction and versatility.  His artistic accomplishments have been recognized throughout North America, garnering prizes in the Canadian International Organ Competition, Taylor Organ Competition, AGO/Quimby Competition for Young Organists, and Carol Teti Memorial Organ Competition. An advocate for research into music by female and marginalized composers, his doctoral thesis on the life and music of Claire Delbos (1906-1959) is the first study of its kind.

Nicholas is a member of The Diapason’s “20 under 30 Class of 2015,” which recognizes individuals under the age of 30 who have made significant contributions to the fields of organ performance, harpsichord, and church music.  He is also featured in the critically acclaimed CBC documentary “Pipe Dreams.”

 He earned a Doctor of Music in Performance Studies from McGill University, as well as degrees in historical performance and organ from the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. His teachers include Hans-Ola Ericsson, James David Christie, and Webb Wiggins. While at Oberlin, he taught secondary organ and harpsichord students and served as an instructor at two summer academies.

 Nicholas is Director of Music at Christ Church Cathedral, Montreal, where he oversees a team of two assistant organists, semi-professional choir, and music committee. He is also Director of Chapel Music at Montreal Diocesan Theological College and Associate Editor for the online journal Vox Humana. Nicholas is represented exclusively by Seven Eight Artists.
