Organ Reborn! Norwich Cathedral Organ Festival: A new music festival for Norwich

Whilst also in the Weston Room (Tuesday, 9 July, 3pm) David Briggs, an internationally-acclaimed organist and improviser and artist-in-residence at the Cathedral of St John the Divine, New York City, will give a talk on Pierre Cochereau (born 9 July 1924) organist of Notre Dame de Paris from 1955 to 1984.

Deus ex machina
[…] situated in an old priory destroyed by different wars, abandoned and restored by the craftsman since 1978.The monastic community at Le Barroux has released a highly-recommended double CD of the Aubertin organ played by guests Nigel de Gaunt-Allcoat, Simone Pedroni, Maurits Bunt, and Iain Simcock who advised on the construction of the new organ . The CD's repertoire avoids the 'organ play any music' by with an eclectic programme of Jacques Boyyin, François Couperin, Jean-Adam Guilain, Pierre Cochereau, Michael Praetorius, Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck, Nicolaus Bruhns, and J.S. Bach. (Quiz time: which is the only 20th century composer in that list?)As well as guesting on that double CD the young Dutch Maurits Bunt organist has also released a solo album of similarly eclectic repertoire.

Hello from Bill Doggett, MERRY CHRISTMAS What an honor it has been to have your generous participation in 2021 in celebrating 80 years of one of America's great composers, Adolphus Hailstork. Let us revisit that celebration and celebrate the Season of Advent with his wonderful Toccata on Veni Emmanuel. Dr Hailstork's setting has very personal meaning for me. It represents a five decades-long appreciation of great Cathedral organ music in the Doggett Family encapsulated by my mother Frances' 1971 Christmas Midnight Mass at Notre Dame with legendary organist Pierre Cochereau!. Thank you Adolphus Hailstork for this gift to all of us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuI2vLoADus&t=7s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhUrEOKdwy8&t=76s May I wish you good health, safety and a prosperous outlook for New Year 2022. Cordially, Bill Doggett
