Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to hear one of the world’s greatest organists!
Celebrity Organ Recital
Monday May 28th, 7.30pm
Internationally renowned organist Nigel Allcoat plays Ripon Cathedral’s magnificent organ.
In the first half of what promises to be a sensational recital Nigel will be playing music by himself, Beauvarlet, Charpentier, Buxtehude, Franck, Pachelbel and Stanley. Following the interval he will perform a five movement Symphonic Improvisation ‘The Revelation’, exploring the full range of the Cathedral’s famous Harrison pipe organ.
Admission £5 (16s and under free with paying adult), interval refreshments available.
“Nigel Allcoat is recognised as not only a world-class organist, but also as one of the greatest musical figures of our time. It is wonderful for us to welcome a musician of his stature to perform at the cathedral, and we particularly look forward to hearing his genius for improvisation in full flow. It is a rare opportunity to hear a truly incredible talent.”
Andrew Bryden (Director of Music, Ripon Cathedral)
