About the artist:
Edward Taylor is currently Assistant Organist, and Director of the Cathedral Consort, at Carlisle Cathedral. He is also in demand as a concert organist and Choral conductor.

Edward holds a Bachelor of Music Degree from the University of Leeds and is an Associate of the Royal College of Organists. He has studied the organ with David Sanger, Simon Lindley and Henry Fairs and attended masterclasses with Naji Hakim, , David Briggs and Gillian Weir. Edward has also studied at the Strasbourg Conservatoire in France with Parisian, Christophe Mantoux.

Edwards main role at the cathedral is accompanying the cathedral choirs in their 7 weekly services but he has found time to develop a large repertoire of solo organ music spanning the centuries and the genres across the world. Edward has a large portfolio of recital venues including Westminster Abbey, Bridlington Priory, the town halls of Hull, Leeds and Rochdale and many cathedrals in the UK, Hardenburg Parish Church, Holland, and St Petrikirche in Germany. As director of the Cathedral Consort Edward has directed the choir on television and radio, has organised and led two successful international tours to France and Mallorca and directed the choir in their debut CD ‘God is gone up with a triumphant shout’ in collaboration with Borders Brass in 2014.

Edward is active as a choral conductor and specialises in choral workshops for children, youth choirs and ‘Come and Sing’ events for adult choirs. He has conducted many large-scale works with orchestra including Handel’s ‘Messiah, Haydn’s ‘Creation’ and J. S. Bach’s ‘St John Passion’ to name but a few. These have been in performance as Musical Director of the Penrith Singers and the Dumfries Choral. He has also recently taken over the directorship of the Solway Singers. Edward is the leader of the Cathedral’s Singing Out programme, which involves Primary Schools throughout Cumbria. He regularly hosts choral workshops for children, working with over 750 children each year. He also runs three primary school choirs across the county. In 2009 he co-founded the Carlisle Cathedral Children’s Choir, Carlisle Cantate, who perform secular music regularly in concert venues across Cumbria.

Edward has appeared on several CDs, accompanying the Girls’ Choir of Ely Cathedral on the CD Sing Reign of Fair Maid on the Regent label in 2008, the Leeds Liturgical Choir on the CD Vox Dei in 2006 and numerous CDs as a chorister of Ely Cathedral with Hyperion and Priory Records. Edward recorded his debut solo organ CD with Priory Records which was released in early 2017. Since December 2020, he also been recording live video of organ music for his You Tube channel @Edward Taylor Organist, of which there are about 220 to date.
