DESCRIPTION:Organists are usually very visible (especially at Holy Innocen
 ts!) but how they got there is usually a mystery. They also seem to do wit
 h their feet what most people struggle to do with their hands.  22 Novembe
 r is the day we celebrate St. Cecilia. She became the patron saint of musi
 c and musicians as it is believed that musicians played at her wedding and
  Cecilia "sang in her heart to the Lord." I have been a church organist si
 nce 1963\, and at Holy Innocents at 7.30pm on Sunday 22 November I will ta
 lk about some of the highlights of my career\, such as being locked inside
  York Minster after an evening practice session! I will also be recounting
  the history of the three (possibly four) organs that have been installed 
 in the church\, playing music by some Sussex composers (including one who 
 lived just a couple of miles away)\, illustrating why organists have to we
 ar special shoes and explaining (and demonstrating) what organists and jaz
 z musicians have in common. To round off I will talk about my appearance o
 n Mastermind in 2003.  My talk will last around an hour and questions will
  be most welcome. No need for a ticket\, but a donation to the church to c
 omplete the work of redecoration would be appreciated.
