Organ concert

for 3 hours
St. Stephen’s, Fylingdales
Thorpe Lane, Robin Hood's Bay Fylingdales York, YO22 4RR, United Kingdom

William Hill was an innovative organ builder who, during the 19th century, took the building traditions of the greatest German organ builders of the 17th and 18th centuries, and combined them with the industrial innovations of the period. He built organs all over the world from York Minster to Sydney, Middlesbrough and Birmingham town hall, and everywhere his work has been celebrated by the greatest musicians of the time.
Our organ at St. Stephen’s is an early example of Hill’s work and it has been noticed by Hannes Ludwig who runs a group in Germany call ‘Hill’s Angels’ whose aim is to draw attention to these organ masterpieces to help ensure their continued use and good service.

Hannes is touring with his choir in July and we are so very lucky at St. Stephen’s to have been chosen as one of their venues.

The choir of 25 is called Kantorei Prenzlau and their programme will include pieces for choir and organ by Bach, Vivaldi, Saint-Saens, Mendelssohn and Elgar, and as an added attraction, Hannes will also play Bach’s famous Toccata and Fugue d minor for organ solo.
They will also be supported by ‘cellist Johann Fridrich Suhr Cellist and another organist Wilgard Suhr who will join Hannes in pieces for organ duet (4hands).
