Paul returns to play his fifth recital on the wonderfully restored JJ Binns organ – Chester’s hidden gem!
Paul Carr
Paul directs Selly Park Singers with organist Thomas Howell performing a choral re-imagining of Vivaldi’s enduringly popular The Four Seasons. Composed for 2025 by Joanna Forbes L’Estrange in the 300th anniversary year of Vivaldi’s most famous work, A Season to Sing weaves into these well-loved melodies various texts from poetry and the Bible on the subject of spring, summer, autumn and winter! As one of the 55 international commissioning choirs, SPS is excited to perform this work to celebrate the centenary of St Francis’ Church.
Inaugural Organ Recital following the clean and overhaul of the 1872/1974 Walker/Nicholson organ in St Bart's Church Penn, Wolverhampton where Paul shares the Organist post with Gary Cole.
Paul plays works by Paul Spicer, J.S. Bach, Vivaldi, Lemare, Lindberg and Thierry Pallesco's Fantaisie no.6 which is dedicated to Paul Carr.
