Dr. Chriss is currently Assistant Organist at Trinity Church Wall Street, New York City, as well as University Organist and Artist-in-Residence at Wesleyan University.

A review of his most recent solo recording, Art et Rhapsodie, stated that "he plays with clarity, imagination, musicality, virtuosity, and yes, personality" (American Record Guide).
