Forthcoming Organ recitals

 

All recitals begin at 7.30pm Admission free

 

Organ Recitals

Since our organ recital series began in October 2000 I have been most grateful for the support and encouragement shown by so many who regularly enjoy the "Willis experience" here at St. Dominic's Priory. An attractive colour brochure containing information about our recitals for 2006 is now available. All concerts are free (admission by donation) and begin at 7:30pm.

We continue to enjoy a great many concerts each month given by
internationally distinguished performers who all show what a magnificent instrument this is, also demonstrating the high level of playing available to London audiences today. Our only regret is that more people do not attend these concerts, perhaps because St. Dominic's is not in a popular tourist area. However, the enthusiasm shown by everyone I have spoken to suggests, as we continue to offer monthly recitals, that a larger group of followers will soon our regulars to enjoy the unique sound of Henry Willis' masterpiece-organ for themselves. At the moment our advertising is limited to local newspapers, London magazines, organ-journals and handbills. Any further support or ideas you may feel able to contribute will be greatly appreciated and will be for the benefit of the organ at large.

The forthcoming concerts will continue to demonstrate the many varied colours of this organ and it's most suitable repertoire at the hands of some extraordinary players. I hope you will be able to join us for at least some of the events in our future series and look forward to seeing you in The Lord Southampton for refreshments after each one.

If you know anyone who might be interested joining our mailing list to receive information from us in the future, please let me know. Leaflets are available at the door of St. Dominic's Priory at all times and are free to be collected in any quantity.


Best Wishes,
Martin Stacey
Director of Music
