MIDWEEK LUNCHTIME ORGAN RECITAL - St Jude's, Bowral (Southern Highlands) | 18 September 2024

I visit Bowral in the Southern Highlands of NSW about a couple of times a year. It's home to my former organ teacher, Dr. Allan Beavis. I'm very grateful to him for all the years of support he has afforded to me and continues to this day. He is an integral member of the St Jude's community and the musical life of the highlands in general. Much of the musical activities of St Matthew's is a replica of his work at St Jude's. I hope you enjoy my programme on the St Jude's organ which has recently acquired its completed Choir division.
