Our next recital

Saturday 14th February 2026 from 10.30am – Organ Elevenses with Richard Johnson

Come and be serenaded this Valentine’s Day, as Richard Johnson performs a programme of warmth, tenderness and quiet devotion. Franck’s Chorale No. 3 and Vierne’s elegant Arabesque set a mood of reflective lyricism, while Widor’s Cantabile provides a serene and delicate interlude. The gentle intimacy continues with Vaughan Williams’s beloved Rhosymedre, before concluding with two of Howells’s Psalm Preludes.

Richard’s full programme is:

  • Chorale no. 3 – Franck
  • Arabesque – Vierne
  • Cantabile (Symphonie no. 6) – Widor
  • Chorale Prelude ‘Rhosymedre’ – Vaughan Williams
  • Psalm Prelude, Set 1, no. 1 – Howells
  • Psalm Prelude, Set 2, no. 3 – Howells

Coffee and cake are served from 10.30am, and the 40-minute recital begins at 11.00am. A large-screen projection shows all the action from the organ bench. A lovely start to your weekend!
