Organ Concert: Gordon Stewart - A Tribute to Sir Walter Parratt

Part of the Kirklees Concert Season 2018/2019

When Huddersfield Town Hall was being built, a son of the town, Walter Parratt, then organist at Magdalen College, Oxford, advised the Council to purchase an organ which Henry Willis had built for a hall in South Wales, but which they no longer required. Parratt played the opening concert in 1881. For this concert, you’ll hear Stanford, Parry, Howells and Erlebach works which were all dedicated to him.
