About Sunday Afternoon Organ Music
Paul’s series Sunday Afternoon Organ Music at Holy Trinity, Wordsley follows his ten-year series of Saturday lunchtime recitals at Cradley Heath (1993-2003) during this decade Paul played 100 recitals himself and hosted guest recitalists including Nigel Argust, Keith Hearnshaw, Angela Sones, Henry Fairs, Julian Ross, Darren Hogg, Kevin Gill and Richard Hall.
Sunday Afternoon Organ Music takes place on the first Sunday of every month at 3.00pm. After the March 2020 programme the series was suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic. However, from August 2020 Paul Carr performed a short programme each month online only for a year until September 2021 when the series was split alternating between live performances with an audience in the building and online pre-recorded video performances.
Admission to the recitals is free with a retiring collection taken to assist in funding the ongoing care and maintenance of the instrument. For our online audience donations are very welcome and details of the best way to do this can be obtained by contacting SAOM@paulcarr.co.uk
Programme content
Programmes are an eclectic mix of individual organ pieces, movements from larger scale works and transcriptions of works written for other instruments or ensembles.
In addition Paul has performed many major organ works in their entirety during the series including Louis Vierne Six Organ Symphonies; Charles-Marie Widor Symphony no. 5 in F minor, Symphony no. 6 in G minor, Symphony no. 7 in A minor; J.S. Bach Six Trio Sonatas; Flor Peeters Suite Modale, Lied Symphony; Marcel Dupré Symphonie-Passion; Felix Mendelssohn Six Organ Sonatas (during 2009 – composer’s 200th anniversary); Organ Sonatas by Sir William Harris, Basil Harwood, Edward Bairstow, Alexandre Guilmant; Joseph Jongen Sonata Eroïca and Paul Spicer Suite for Organ. Paul regularly dedicates entire programmes to the music of J.S. Bach and has also played programmes of music entirely by Marcel Dupré and has also focussed programmes on living composers including Zsolt Gárdony, Paul Spicer, Naji Hakim and David Briggs.
