Pre-Festival Event: Young Organist’s Recital – Thomas Blew
Presented by St Dunstan's Organ Trust
St Dunstan’s Organ Trust is presenting a series of three recitals featuring the splendid Walker organ played by three young and upcoming organists. The second of these recitals will be performed by Thomas Blew, who holds the ARCO diploma, is in his final year at school and is Organ Scholar at St Giles, Farnborough. He is also enjoying a busy schedule with the National Youth Orchestra.
The recitals are part of a series of events highlighting the quality of the organ in St Dunstan’s Church, but also the fact that wear, tear and damp have taken their toll on the instrument such that it now needs major repairs and servicing. All proceeds from this recital will go towards the maintenance costs of the organ.
This recital will feature a ‘meet the organist’ interview and a ‘Classic FM Moment‘ of lighter repertoire. Pre-recital drinks will be available from 5.30pm.
This concert is presented by St Dunstan’s Organ Trust and supported by the Mayfield Festival
