Toccata Théodore Dubois 1837-1924 The distinguished musician D’Arcy Trinkwon is one of the outstanding organists of his generation renowned for his artistic mastery and virtuoso fervour in the service of his art. Performing in international festivals and concerts series in concert halls, cathedrals and churches around the world, his engagements include recording, broadcasts, masterclasses, teaching and concertos performances – recently with the Manchester Camerata, the Royal Northern Sinfonia and the Hove Symphony orchestras. Respected for his dedication to the organ as a concert instrument, his instinctive sensitivity to the organ is grounded in scholarship and an encyclopedic knowledge of his craft and his vast repertoire - one of the most extensive of any artist before the public - includes all the established masterpieces of all periods; he has also given numerous premiers. However, he is known above all for his performances of the French repertoire and the most demanding Romantic virtuoso works. Demonstrating a prodigious talent for the graphic arts from the earliest age, he realised his musical vocation whilst Head Chorister at Canterbury Cathedral. After teenage studies in London, he completed his formal education at the Royal Northern College of Music, Manchester, before further studies with Jean Guillou and Odile Pierre in Paris. Alongside his concert career he is Organist of both Worth Abbey and the University of Sussex where he performs a regular series of concerts. One of so many musicians professionally affected by Covid, the idea for a creative project emerged; in an attempt to keep music alive in a very moderate way for the pleasure of music-lovers, he began sharing a personal archive of concert recordings via his YouTube channel: Virtuoso Organ Music now features over 200 listings. In addition to detailed information on the music, he also shares insights into his personal relationship with each work. Website: darcytrinkwon.com |
