Young (and Potential) Organists’ Opportunities – Oxford – 9 November 2016

Organ For All Event

Wednesday 9 November 2016

An opportunity for young musicians to enhance and broaden their opportunities – see event details attached:

organ-scholarship-outreach-autumn-2016

There is a considerable programme of Organ Scholarships (as well as Choral Scholarships and a variety of music scholarships and bursaries) at the different colleges which make up the University of Oxford. Jesus College, Oxford is working with the Royal College of Organists, music teachers and church musicians to help communicate that it is more than possible for anyone to take up the organ (they really don’t need to be at schools boasting their own organ or their own organ teacher!), and to convey the many opportunities that learning the organ can bring.

Jesus College wants to enthuse young musicians and broaden their aspirations, to learn about a great instrument, to find one nearby, to find a teacher nearby, and to access a great musical tradition. They are welcoming students of all ages 11+ to come along, and will be catering for both youngsters and sixth-formers; all teachers are also very welcome to attend, to find out more.

Admission is free of charge (with sponsorship offered especially from Jesus College, New College, and Exeter College; we are inviting donations from anyone who wishes to attend or who wishes to sponsor a further place or two for prospective organists from low-income backgrounds).

Chaplain, Jesus College

THE BERT ALLWOOD ALEXANDRA PALACE ORGAN SCHOLARSHIP

THE BERT ALLWOOD ALEXANDRA PALACE ORGAN SCHOLARSHIP

The Trustees of the Alexandra Palace Organ Appeal are appointing an Organ Scholar. The famous Willis 1873/1929 Grand Concert Organ is the last major concert organ in London awaiting restoration; the Trustees organise a series of fund-raising concerts and silent film accompaniments in the Great Hall.

The Organ Scholar will assist at four main concerts each year, and will be able to use the four manual organ, with 49 (out of 98 eventual) speaking stops, for regular practice. Someone with easy access to North London will be given preference. Candidates will undertake to do their organ practice at Alexandra Palace an average of at least once a fortnight.

Actual duties are few, and include helping at the four concerts and films each year, where they would be expected to turn up well beforehand to help up set up screens and projectors. They would be expected to take a general interest in the welfare of this extraordinary instrument. The Scholarship will be worth £500 plus reasonable expenses.

The Scholarship is given in memory of Bert Allwood, who regularly used to walk from Hampstead to hear the organ in the 1930s, when it was at its most magnificent.

For more information on the organ visit www.allypallyorgan.org.uk

Please send CV and 2 Referees to Hugh Macpherson <hughamacpherson@yahoo.co.uk> Flat 11 Forrest House, 42 Rochester Row, London SW1P 1BU.
