This concert is dedicated to the memory of Peter Collins, who sadly passed away on 24 October. He built the Greyfriars organ in 1990 in conjunction with the late Michael Chibbett, then Greyfriars organist and so the instrument is 25 years old this year; much of the musical activity in Greyfriars over the past year has been in celebration of the organ. Peter, who built organs over a period of 40 years both in the UK and in Europe, was a highly-respected craftsman and a personal friend to many organists, including Douglas Hollick, who has recorded the Greyfriars instrument.
