Dr. Somerville has presented over one hundred organ recitals on three continents, in such diverse locales as the Cathedral in Harare, Zimbabwe, Westminster Abbey and St. Paul's Cathedral in London, the Domkirche in Freiberg, Germany (on the 1714 Silbermann organ) and Methuen Memorial Music Hall and the University of Nebraska in the United States.
