Cathedral Recital

18 July 2009
Location: Clifton Cathedral
Address: Pembroke Road, Bristol BS8 3BX
Time: 7.30 pm

Clifton Cathedral’s Organist Stephen Bryant has news of top recital by Gordon Stewart.

Stephen told cliftondiocese.com: “We have an organ recital in the Cathedral on Saturday 18 July. The recital is being given by Gordon Stewart and will start at 7.30 pm and last about an hour.

“I’m calling this the Anniversary Recital as it is a one-off event and is fairly close to the date of SS Peter and Paul.”
 
Gordon Stewart is one of the UK’s most popular and adaptable organists; he has played celebrity concerts in such places as St Paul’s Cathedral, Westminster Abbey, Westminster Cathedral, the Laurenskerk, Alkmaar and at Symphony Hall in Birmingham, Leeds Town Hall, Melbourne Town Hall, Pietermaritzburg City Hall, Johannesburg Cathedral and the Bridgewater Hall, Manchester, but is equally happy playing concerts in small churches and chapels.  His large repertoire means he can design concerts suitable for most organs and audiences.  Playing regularly on the 1860 Father Willis organ at Huddersfield Town Hall, where he has been resident organist at for over 18 years, he has built a large and enthusiastic following.
