Time: Wednesday, 30 May 2018, at 12:00am
Place: The Meeting House, University of Sussex, Brighton
Description: The last concert of the academic year in the increasingly successful series of ‘45 Minutes of Music @ the Meeting House'.

The series is performed by the internationally acclaimed concert organist and University Organist, D’Arcy Trinkwon, who is acclaimed as one of the outstanding virtuoso musicians of his generation. He is also Organist of Worth Abbey.

Admission is free and everyone is welcome.

These fascinating, relaxed and informal concerts include interesting verbal introductions from D’Arcy who explains details and background of each piece of music, thus making the music accessible to even those new to great organ music. The concerts are aimed to be interesting to everyone, and the audiences continue to grow - showing that they are!

The organ in the Meeting House is one of the finest organs in the South East and is also one of the iconic instruments of its period; built in 1966 by Grant, Degens and Bradbeer, its futuristic design still looks avant-garde today. It was recently fully restored by Clevedon Organs with the addition of a very modern mobile console which allows the audience to watch everything the performer is doing and be totally involved and the performer to communicate fully with musician them.
