Solihull musicians attend organ concert

MUSICIANS at Solihull Sixth Form College visited Town Hall in Birmingham city centre for a lunchtime concert this week.

Part of a season of Lunchtime Organ concerts, learners were treated to a performance Thomas Trotter, with his Summer Requests concert.

Indeed, the performance included favourite music chosen by the audience themselves from this season’s repertoire.

Declared “Britain’s greatest living organist” by Gramophone magazine, Thomas Trotter is among the world’s most celebrated players, and he has elevated the tradition of the virtuoso organist to new heights.

Music teacher Nina Wertz said: “Our Year 13 A level Music students had a great opportunity to appreciate Mr Trotter’s craft and musical sensitivity in this fantastic performance of both classical and somewhat lighter repertoire.”
