Founded in
1932, the Society is for those
interested in pipe organs and classical organ music.
Many members are organists though a number who do not play simply enjoy
the organ and its music.
Monthly
meetings throughout the year take the form of recitals,
master classes, and visits to places of interest, often a Cathedral, where there is usually an
opportunity to play the organ.
We
publish a quarterly newsletter
Sequencer (see
Some original articles
) and
In common with many other organ
societies we are affiliated to the IAO
.
Many of our members are church
organists and opportunities for appointments are frequently advertised
through the Society.
If
you would like to join the society, an application
form may be obtained from the Secretary or downloaded here.
