On this week’s show its turn of our star organist to entertain. Who better than the senior winner of last years ATOS young organist of the year competition, Aaron Hawthorne. Aaron is playing his ‘home’ Wurlitzer – the one in Pollokshaws Burgh Hall, Glasgow and he certainly gets the best sounds with a varied and enjoyable programme.
It’s important to support organists and concerts, but everything we have brought to you this year is done out of our own pockets. So if you have enjoyed this week’s show, why not donate?
