St Albans names organist because Winchester can’t

St Albans names organist because Winchester can’t

The confusion over cathedral music just deepened.

St Alban’s has issued this news: We are delighted to share with you that Oliver Morrell, our Organ Scholar here at St Albans Cathedral, will be moving to Winchester Cathedral to take up the position of Sub-Organist.

Winchester is in such disarray that it has not managed to share its recruitment.

Morrell graduated in 2021 from Durham University, after three years as Organ Scholar at Durham Cathedral.

The post St Albans names organist because Winchester can’t appeared first on Slippedisc.
