DESCRIPTION:
My final video of me playing the superb Compton organ installed at St George's Roman Catholic Cathedral in Southwark, London.
I am only an amateur and by no means a pro so wanted to point this out and hope you are still able to get the jist of the amazing skills of the John Compton Organ Company Ltd.
Im playing the hymn 'Jesus, the word bestow' and the reason I chose this was because of the name of the tune 'St George'.
Many thanks to the Cathedral staff for allowing me access to this brilliant Compton organ.
For more information on the John Compton Organ Company Ltd and to see me play other Compton organs, please click on the following link for my site dedicated to the John Compton Organ Company Ltd:

REQUEST: I am always on the lookout for Compton organs to play - particularly electrones - so if you know of any churches which still have these then please do let me know. I will happily give a donation or pay any applicable room hire charge.
