Our ongoing partnership with the superb organ department at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire sees them once again bring the crème de la crème of their organ students to the festival, for the final of the Dame Gillian Weir Messiaen Prize.

Three conservatoire students compete in front of a distinguished panel of experts and our festival audience for this year’s award: each plays a 20-minute programme, to include music by Olivier Messiaen, on the mighty Snetzler organ of Beverley Minster. Form your own opinions and see whether your judgement lines up with that of the experts!

The panel this year will be chaired by Andrew McCrea, Director of Studies at the Royal College of Organists; he will be joined by distinguished organists and trailblazing educators Cathy Lamb and Tom Bell. Refreshments will be available during the panel’s deliberation.

Why not stay on afterwards for soup lunch and our free lunchtime concert?
