Evening Organ Recital with Francesca Massey

Wednesday 16 November 2022

2022 Organ Recital Series

#FRANCK200

Commemorating the bicentenary of the birth of César Franck (1822-1890)

We’re delighted that Francesca Massey, Concert Organist, will be giving our organ recital on Wednesday 16 November at 7.30pm.

Please note that, as the Cathedral Organ is currently out of action, this organ recital will be played on the 3-manual Allen digital organ which is currently installed in the Cathedral. We are indebted to Johan for agreeing to go ahead with the recital. Due to our 8-second acoustic, we think that you’ll be surprised at how impressive the digital organ sounds in the Cathedral building!

Programme to include:

Widor Symphonie gothique
