Londoner living in Australia. I play the organ. Cats.

A short video of my recently-arrived home organ, and a nice bit of Janáček:

I’ve just spotted a quadruple-dotted minim, rarely seen in the wild!

@houghhough Thank you so much for coming ! 😺

I’m loving playing the organ Sonatina by @houghhough in honour of his concerts here in Sydney this week. Movt 2 down for St Mary’s Cathedral 10.30 solemn mass this Sunday, just in case you’re passing by, Sir Stephen?!

My new album is on the streaming services now. You can still buy a CD from me and get the informative booklet with it, though!

My new album has dropped! According to some organ historical luminaries, this is the best organ in Australia. More info at https://t.co/7JIKcSp287. Non-USA purchasers contact me for a favourable postage rate!

I’m delighted to announce my new album, back on the @ProOrganoMedia label! Whatever you think about the playing, the organ is fantastic!

Just watched an opera about a rodent that goes around letting the air out of tyres.

Deflator mouse.

Note the clanky lever swell pedal! 🙀

I was recently lucky enough to play a gig & make a recording on this obsessively well-restored Hill organ in Tanunda, an hour north of Adelaide, with the best post-recital audience wine I’ve ever had, and German food in the club next door. Album dropping around August/September!

[𝗦imоn 𝝢iemiń𝗌𝗄i @nimsk]

@JNieminska @annalapwood And I print out a setlist, just in case!

@stjohnscam Perhaps support #InternationalWomensDay by not disbanding @StJohnsVoices?

@CMB1969 @Hplayspiano You’re right about St Giles’, but that’s St Mary’s in the photo, a Scottish Episcopal cathedral. I mainly know that because I was Organist there. (Cue organ jokes…)

[𝗦imоn 𝝢iemiń𝗌𝗄i @nimsk]

@VictoriaCoren Nah, Christmas ends at Candlemas, or the Magi don’t get a look-in. And I’m pretty sure I read about an ancient tradition of putting up the decorations on Martinmas, 11th November.

In @Coles listening to @RevRichardColes on Coles Radio!

A transcription I’ve made of some newly-discovered plainchant.

Might @QuireMemes be interested in this scholarship, from the Codex Astlensis Ricardus?

[𝗦imоn 𝝢iemiń𝗌𝗄i @nimsk]

What a treat to be showing off the mighty organ at the Sydney Opera House’s 50th Birthday Festival Open House Weekend!
