On a warm Summer evening, with a slight breeze, the historic Church of St Peter's provided the perfect backdrop for an electic selection of organ music. Many locals came to enjoy the evening, with a complementary glass of wine, making the Church almost full to capacity.
Husband and wife team of Ben and Cathy Lamb (Ben is the son of our organist Shelagh Lamb), introduced and played a varied choice of pieces, which were a delight to hear:
- Karg-Elert - Nun danket alle Gott
- Vaughan-Williams - Rhosymedre
- Felix Mendelssohn - Allegro maestoso e vivace (Sonata 2)
- Augusta Holmès - Clair de lune
- William Mathias - Processional
- Cecile Chaminade - Valse
- Leon Boëllmann - Minuet Gothique
- J.S. Bach - chorale prelude Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme
- Joseph Bonnet - Variations de concert
- Iain Farrington - Steal away
- Theodore Dubois - Toccata
- Pietro Yon - Toccatina
Please come back next year, Ben & Cathy!
