CITY OF LONDON

JHill16_Flyer (1)

This May, as for the last 11 years, St Lawrence Jewry will be home to a most unusual festival of organ playing, featuring the most brilliant young players of the moment.  Each year there have been quite breathtaking programmes and 2016 will be no exception, with the music of Cesar Franck being a common thread this year.   This is the only Young Artists programme for organists in the UK so it is a very special series, enthusiastically supported by the family of the late John Hill.

Please join us for one or more of our May 2016 performances.

Admission is free.
