The free recitals take place every Wednesday at 1pm from the 7th May to the 9th July, except for the 21st and 28th May 2025.
The popular weekly free ‘Wednesday@One’ organ recitals return to Bradford Cathedral after the Easter break.
This season will feature a line-up of eight organists, starting with Robert Poyser from Beverley Minster on Wednesday 7th May 2025.
The season is themed around Bradfordian Organ Music: music from composers with a connection to the City and District.
The organ recitals begin at 1pm every Wednesday and are preceded by an optional £4 buffet lunch at 12:30pm.
The organ recitals are free to attend, though donations are welcome. The recitals last around 45 minutes and those attending are also welcome to explore the Cathedral before and after the recital.
William Campbell, Assistant Director of Music at Bradford Cathedral, says:
“We’re really looking forward to the return of our Wednesday@One organ recitals. As ever, we have a superb line up of organists, some old friends, and some who have never been before, and it’s the perfect way to continue marking the City of Culture year.
“As always, doors open at 12:30 for the famous buffet lunch at only £4, followed by the recital at 1pm. Do join us, and spread the word!”
You can also read an interview with each organist, on the Bradford Cathedral website, in the week leading up to their recital.
