April 2nd, 2012 - Third Series of Organ Concerts

The details for the third season of concerts on two of the most stunning organs in West Yorkshire are now available. The series brings together guests from abroad with some of the country's most celebrated organists to entertain and delight audiences.

The organ at St Patrick's Huddersfield was built in 2009 by Škrabl of Slovenia and combines the technical brilliance of a modern Classical organ with the warm tones of Central Europe. Leeds Cathedral's new organ is a full-bodied Romantic instrument, built on the Edwardian gravitas of the original 1904 instrument with a touch of magic provided in the reconstruction of 2010 by Klais of Bonn.

The concert listings can be downloaded by clicking below.
