From 9 January – 2 March, Exeter Cathedral Organ Scholar will be taking on the exciting challenge of performing all 48 preludes and fugues of J.S. Bach’s ‘Well-tempered Clavier’ to raise funds for the 2025 Exeter Cathedral Choir Tour to Normandy and Paris. Here’s a preview of Adam rehearsing for this evening’s Choral Evensong. You can support Adam’s Choir Tour fundraiser via JustGiving https://t.co/DNGxX44j0d #ExeterCathedral #YourCathedral

@seam100 @QuireMemes @demoographics Already responded to Patrick’s tweet!

@liturgicalben @PatrickAllies If “Preces” are prayers or requests, then “O Lord make haste to help us” is as much a prece (if that is the correct singular) as “O God make speed to save us? If they are to be split into cantor-choir, then I think “Versicles and Responses” is clearer.

This was a great privilege - and good fun!

Congratulations to Selwyn’s organ scholar @adamfield02, who has passed his Fellowship Diploma of the Royal College of Organists (FRCO). This is the most advanced qualification available to organists, and it’s highly unusual for it to be awarded to undergraduates.

@burgonsoc @Selwyn1882 Thank you! If only I could buy one at the moment…

@ajmnewma @_F_B_G_ Yes, Bishop George Augustus Selwyn, after whom @Selwyn1882 is named, rowed in the first race in 1829 (granted, he wasn't a clergyman at the time). Selwyn is also the only Oxbridge college to be named after someone who rowed in the boat race.

@rjhk A very lucky chap - being RJHK’s sixth-form organ scholar was life-changing for me!

In latest “decline of the Church” news: at half past nine on a cold and rainy Wednesday night, Selwyn College Chapel was full (with almost everyone under 30) for Choral Compline in Latin. Laus Deo.
