Meet Arthur Nobile, Jr.


Arthur Nobile, Jr. is a liturgist, philanthropist, artist, environmentalist and scholar. He has been hailed "a musical virtuoso and icon of organ improvisation."

His affiliation with organist, Diane Bish commenced a life-long commitment to playing the organ. He graduated with honors from Seton Hill University, Greensburg, Pa., in 1997 after completing a self-designed major in Not-for-Profit Administration/Development and Philanthropic Giving along with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Art History. Since that time he has continued his education throughout Europe and has performed throughout the world.

In 2005 he dedicated the organ of The Cathedral of Notre Dame, Saigon, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam before an audience of 2500, the largest gathering for an organ concert.


In 2010 he founded Nobilare, LLC, a type of holding corporation for natural gas rights as well as the managing corporation for Mr. Nobile's musical endeavors.

He lives in south Florida and is a native of western Pennsylvania, Greensburg, Pennsylvania, a town 35 miles east of Pittsburgh.

Mr. Nobile's family was actively involved in the development of commercial and residential properties by way of his father's corporation, Lago de Vita, Inc. and A. Nobile Enterprises, Inc. Because of this, Arthur was schooled for 3 months each year during his early education in Rancho Mirage , California, Palm Desert, Indian Wells Later this would lead to an interest in television networks such as NBC and Carson Productions, Inc., the agency which produced "The Tonight Show with Johny Carson" and one that has had a tremendous effect on Mr. Nobile.

After 24 years as a church musician, Arthur has decided to use his own philanthropy to celebrate the goodness of humanity and serve those who do not have as much. These blogs are intended to support Arthur's continued interest in Liturgy.
