For many years organist at Lincoln Cathedral, Colin Walsh is one of the UK’s most eminent recitalists. He has given recitals all over the UK – including two at the Royal Festival Hall – and internationally, he has also held positions at St George’s Chapel, Windsor, and St Alban’s and Salisbury Cathedrals.

We are currently unable to live stream Monday lunchtime recitals; in the meantime we will upload video recordings the following day.

Organ Renewal Project at Leeds Town Hall

Work on the renewal of the Town Hall organ is well under way. Apart from the massive front pipes, which are stored on the floor of the stalls awaiting redecoration, the organ has been completely removed to Nicholson & Co’s workshop in Malvern.

Renovation of the existing pipes is progressing well, and many new parts and components have been delivered and manufactured. We need your support for this exciting project so please visit Leeds Town Hall for more information, and you can see pictures of the work in progress at Nicholson Organs.

Thank you.
