RCO Academy Summer Course 2014

London City churches compete with the office blocks: St Giles Cripplegate, St Paul’s Cathedral, St Botolph’s without Aldgate
This year’s RCO Academy Summer Course is set to break records – 34 organs and 80 students from grade 4 to diploma. Join me – I’ll be blogging every day from the course – posts appear below











It’s so hilarious to imagine students traveling around the city with pedal boards on a pick-up… and a serious face for preparation… But seriously, pedalwork isn’t child’s play, especially when it’s an organ you’re not used to.
That’s why after reading the many blogs and suggested items on this page, I purchased myself a book by no other than Madam Joyce Jones, “Pedal Mastery: For Organ”
Helped a lot even though I didn’t get to finish it… Good luck to all performing organists during this course!
