Organ Festival 2025: Richard Pinel, Royal Academy of Music & St Mary's, Bourne Street
Start time: 2.55pm
On selected Sundays, Evensong will be preceded by a short, informal recital given by a host of talented organists. All are welcome from 2.30pm-3.50pm in the Quire. There is no entry cost for these informal recitals, donations are welcome upon exit. Richard was awarded the organ scholarship to Magdalen College, Oxford in 2002. During his time there, the Grammy-nominated college choir undertook several recording projects with Harmonia Mundi, on which Richard’s playing was hailed as ‘a force of nature’. More recently, Richard held a Junior Fellowship in the Organ Department of Royal Birmingham Conservertoire and has enjoyed competition success, winning the First Prize and both special prizes at the Breda International Organ Competition.
