THE USHER HALL ORGAN
Not heard in action for more years than anyone cares to remember. the Usher Hall‘s monumental 1914 pipe organ has now been fully restored to its former glory. The honour of giving the inaugural recital falls to one of the best organists in the world. Gillian Weir. Playing a wide selection chosen to show off the organ at its best. Weir also gives the world premiere of Howard Blake‘s specially written Rise of the House of Usher. Next up is also not to be missed. Newly appointed city organist. John Kitchen. is soloist in Saint-Saens' spectacular Organ Symphony as part of this year‘s RSNO Proms. (Carol Main)
