Organ Recitals

I am proud to present our 2021 Organ Recital Programme in aid of our organ maintenance fund.

Thirteen organ recitalists from around the UK, Thailand and the USA will provide us with a feast of organ music played on our magnificent 2018 York Pipe organ.

The first four recitals will be filmed in a closed church and streamed on the internet for your pleasure. The remaining recitals will be filmed in front of an audience and streamed as well for our international and home-based audience (subject to the Government guidance at the time and PCC approval).

Recitals online only:
