Any group or organisation requiring a guest
speaker may be interested in my illustrated talk 'A Century of Recorded Church Music'. This is a Powerpoint
presentation of music and photographs which takes the audience on a fascinating and unique journey through a 100
years of recorded English Church Music, beginning with the first ever recording.
