Stops and Spotlights
Join us for two afternoon workshops exploring the art of console management and transcriptions.
2pm Workshop 1: Make the Console Work for You.
How can you make the most of your practice time when playing on an unfamiliar instrument? This practical session offers tips and strategies to help organists feel more confident and prepared at a
new console.
3pm Workshop 2: Play to the Crowd – Discovering the Music of the Theatre.
Explore the expressive and crowd-pleasing potential of the organ through music beyond the traditional canon. In this session, participants are invited to bring transcriptions of opera, film or other popular music, or even piano scores, to explore
their theatrical side at the console.
4pm: Refreshments
4.30pm: Organ Recital by Claudia Grinnell to include music by Verdi, Mason, Elgar and Bach.
Claudia Grinnell began learning the organ at St Peter’s Collegiate Church in Wolverhampton before reading Music at the University of Cambridge, where she was Organ Scholar at Peterhouse. After a year at Salisbury Cathedral, she spent seven years on the music staff at Winchester Cathedral, latterly as Sub-Organist, with particular responsibility for the Girls’ Choir. She was appointed Director of Music at St Edmundsbury Cathedral in 2024, becoming the first woman to hold the post.
