Note (25.8.2017)

It is now an almost unbelieveable fifty years since my first public recital and I have decided to retire from public performing.

 

I am very grateful to the many venues that have welcomed and supported me over the years and wish to thank anyone who came and showed their appreciation of my work as part of my audience.

 

Music is my life and performing for you all was always a great joy to me.

 

 

For up-to-date information regarding UK recitals generally, I strongly recommend that you visit www.organrecitals.com . You will find there a wonderful (and completely free) service supporting both recitalists and audiences.
