About this Event

This recital by John Butt is part of our monthly series of recitals by organists associated with Victorian Gothic churches designed, like ours, by architect John Loughborough Pearson.

Free admission with a retiring collection in aid of our Organ Fund. (Renewal of the leather work is needed sooner rather than later to keep our fine Rushworth and Dreaper instrument in good order.)

Progamme:
Prelude and Fugue in E Minor – J.S. Bach
Chorale No, 2 in B Minor – César Frank
Three Pieces; Variations sur un theme de Clément: Jannequin / Le Jardain Suspendu / Litanies – Jehan Alain

John Butt in musical director of Dunedin Consort and a Principal Artist with the OAE. He was Director of Music here at st Alban's Church from 1977 to1979, while still at school, before becoming organ scholar of King’s College Cambridge.

Refreshments will be available after the recital.
