I love organ music. And it's important to note that Organ recitals (that is, Organ performances not part of a religious service) are not a rare thing!
For example, there are two recitals at Stanford's Memorial Church scheduled next month:
• June 5, a recital by Ethan Williams, Stanford student.

• June 16, the annual Commencement Organ recital of Dr. Morgan, Stanford University Organist.
https://events.stanford.edu/events/686/68615/ https://events.stanford.edu/events/686/68615/
Both events are at 7:30 PM in Memorial Church (https://campus-map.stanford.edu/?id=01-500 https://campus-map.stanford.edu/?id=01-500), and typically end around 9 PM.
You can also keep an eye on https://religiouslife.stanford.edu/programs-events/music https://religiouslife.stanford.edu/programs-events/music and https://events.stanford.edu https://events.stanford.edu for future performances (there's already one scheduled for August).

(And the organist, Robert Huw Morgan, taught at my school when I was a kid: he rejoiced under the predictable nickname of Organ Morgan.)
