Our weekly organ recital series showcases top-class performers playing beautiful music from across the centuries in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
The summer season is themed around the development in the French symphonic repertoire, so we will be exploring the music of composers such as Widor, Vierne and Guilmant, through to Franck and Duruflé and other lesser-known composers such as Marie Prestat.
It will also include a world premiere by Leeds-based composer, Dr Niki Zohdi.
Entry is free and there is an optional buffet lunch at 12:30pm before the recital for £4. There is also a Retiring Collection towards the costs of the recitals,
