Royal Birmingham Conservatoire200 Jennens Road, Birmingham
Mon 16 Nov · 18:00 · Free
About this event
Which came first - the English organ, as imagined and created by master craftspeople over many centuries? Or the music, around which these beautiful creations were conceived? To unpick this fascinating and knotty question, we welcome world-authority and leading organ consultant, Dr William McVicker. William is a highly engaging speaker, and his illustrated seminar is certain to illuminate us on the complexities of organs, music, choirs, and places of music making in England from 1600 to the present day. Our organ events are popular and spaces are limited in the studio, so please book early to avoid disappointment. Running time approx. one hour and 15 minutes
