Orgel

Stephen Farr puts the Royal Albert Hall’s titanic instrument through its paces in the first of this year’s two organ recitals. Among the most adaptable virtuosos of his generation, he takes in music by J. S. Bach and two of this year’s anniversary composers, Jehan Alain and Liszt.

There’s also the world premiere of a large-scale solo piece composed for Farr: expect something direct and communicative from Judith Bingham, a past member of the BBC Singers.

A Judith Bingham world premiere on the Royal Albert Hall organ

Andrew Benson-Wilson, 21st July

The enormous organ of the Royal Albert Hall had a busy Sunday. In the evening Prom, it was due to add even more volume to Havergal Brian’s monumental ‘Gothic’ Symphony, whilst during the afternoon it was given to the charge of Stephen Farr, one of the UK’s most compelling organ recitalists, for a solo recital.
