Zimbelstern Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I see that one of the requirements for the Worcester job is “gravitas”. I’d be interested to see the assessment criteria for this characteristic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ageing Muso Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 ..... and it's gladdened the end of a long teaching Friday to see that the job spec. also asks for An ability to play the organ with flare...... (sic); we can all think of instruments that may deserve just that, but surely not Mr Tickell's?

Zimbelstern Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Didn’t Rick Wakeman used to play the organ with flares during the 1970s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Allison Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) not quite the 70's, and no flares in sight?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtrKdt7saCc Edited April 27, 2018 by Peter Allison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveHarries Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 The May/June 2018 issue of Choir & Organ magazine says that "Matthew Owens (Organist & Master of the Choristers, Wells Cathedral) has been made a Prebendary (Canon) of Wells Cathedral by the Bishop of Bath and Wells, in recognition of 'outstanding service to the Church in the Diocese and particularly to the Cathedral'.

Shropshire Lad Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I'm presuming that Christopher Allsop is moving on to pastures new from Worcester Cathedral? Anybody know where yet? He'll be very much missed, the choir speak very highly of him. He's also a very underrated organist and hopefully we'll get to hear more of his playing in the future to show off his talents.

Worcester will still have the talents of Mr. Allsop: he isn't moving too far. Just across the College Green in fact. http://rscmworcester.com/moving-to-pastures-new-across-college-green/ Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For clarification, that's St Philip's Cathedral, not St Chad's. I only mention this because I managed to confuse myself over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
