Fela Sowande and Louis Vierne: Organ Recital from Leeds Minster (David Houlder)

A warm welcome to the eleventh of our Online Organ Recitals for the Autumn Term! We will be sharing an organ recital each Friday throughout the term, with a wonderful variety of music played by the Minster's regular recitalists Alexander Woodrow, David Houlder and Christopher Newton - and, next Friday 20th November, by one of our Organ Scholars, William Campbell. The series will conclude (lockdown easing permitting) on Friday 18th December with a Christmas recital of choral and organ music, directed by Chantal Berry, another of our Organ Scholars, and featuring the Choral and Organ Scholars of the Minster in a festive programme. We hope you enjoy these performances and look forward perhaps to welcoming you in person to a live recital at Leeds Minster in 2021! Today's performance is by David Houlder, Leeds' Sub-Organist, and features music by the twentieth century Nigerian composer Fela Sowande, and by Louis Vierne. It is the 150th anniversary of Vierne's birth this year, an anniversary that has been somewhat overshadowed by world events. If you enjoy the Vierne today, why not look out for Alexander Woodrow's performance of the first half of Vierne's First Organ Symphony, released last Friday on 6.11.2020, or look out for the remaining three movements of the same work to be shared here on Friday 11 December. Next Friday's recital will be given by one of our Organ Scholars, William Campbell, undergraduate Music Student at York University and a former Organ Scholar of Guildford Cathedral. Like this recording, it will be shared at 1.00pm on this 'Music from Leeds Minster' YouTube channel.
