More Information (V2 Radio is not responsible for external websites)
Benedict Tanner will be giving a recital on the organ in St Stephen's Church, North Mundham on Saturday 13 June 2026 between 3pm and 4pm.
Benedict began his musical training at the age of six, learning the violin and piano. A year later he joined the choir of St. Paul's Cathedral, where he started learning the organ. During his time as a Music Scholar at Rugby School, he featured in two Choral Evensongs on BBC Radio 3, once as an organist and once with a performance of his choral composition, Those Who Wait for the Lord. Benedict is currently the Organ Scholar at Chichester Cathedral and, beginning in September 2026, he will study music at Oxford University as the Organ Scholar at New College.
The St Stephen’s Church organ is a two manual and pedal instrument, with mechanical tracker action. The organ was built by Messrs Wordsworth & Maskell of Leeds and installed in 1884. An electric blower was fitted in 1936. The organ was thoroughly cleaned and rebuilt in 2002 by FH Browne and Sons, Organ Builders of Canterbury.
We have on good authority that Alan Thurlow thought our organ is one of the very best in West Sussex. We have had an organ recital annually over the last few years and it is truly amazing to hear the sounds that these talented organists can bring forth. Well worth attending and we hope to see you there!
There will be a retiring collection for St Stephen’s Church's funds.
Refreshments will be served after the recital.
