ORGAN RECITAL: ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES BY ANN BURGESS
14th July 2006 1pm Christ Church Code: 1402 Author: Daniel Charlesworth
All my life I've loved music, and this has shown me that an organ is much more than a boring type of piano. A piano is much easier to play than an organ and has different qualities.
I thought Mozart's music (which he composed and played when he was 5 years old) was brilliant! The music which contained 4 ten-bar pieces) had great rhythm and tune.
I really liked the “Murder on the Orient Express”(a piece specially arranged for the organ by Ann's son, Gareth) because it had the pace of a steam train and I really got the feeling of the train speeding up.
There was a wide variety of other pieces, some happy, some sad, some jumpy-sounding and some quick. I'd like to go again next year!
