DouglasCorr 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2013 I notice there are some interesting recitals http://www.ram.ac.uk/events?event_id=1400 but at 12 noon on Sunday. Can anyone think of a worse time for an organ recital??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clarabella 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2013 That depends who you think will want to go to organ recitals! I agree that the obvious core audience will find noon on a Sunday inconvenient, and it might be argued that it is more important to retain the existing audience than to find new ones. But I am a little uncomfortable with the assumption that organ recitals will be attended only by other organists and churchgoers. Besides the RAM Bach cantata series has, I understand, a well-established regular audience of music-lovers. The recitals you refer to seem to be part of that series, so it is to be hoped that the regular audience will go to those as well as the cantatas, attracted by the implied guarantee of high quality. I may even get to some myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
