SUMMARY:The Organ Project Recital Series 2023 - Simon Taranczuk
DESCRIPTION:The Organ Project’s 2023 Organ Recital series continues at 7pm on 13th October\, with a recital given by Simon Taranczuk\, Director of Music at King’s Worcester.  Join us for a fantastic free recital\, with a retiring collection for the Music Foundation\, performed on our recently-restored 1889 J.W. Walker & Sons pipe organ. Refreshments will be included\, with no booking required. For programme details\, please visit The Organ Project’s website. \nSimon Taranczuk was born in Portsmouth in 1974 and went to school at City Boys’. His musical career began just down the road at All Saints which\, at the time\, had a very strong choral tradition. At 16 he took up his first organ post at St Thomas’\, Bedhampton before his appointment as the first Hampshire County Council Organ Scholar at St Mary’s in 1991 at the same time as the beginning of the Music Foundation and held the post for two years. He studied the organ with Adrian Lucas at the Cathedral. He was appointed Organ Scholar at the University of Hull where he was also Assistant Organist at Beverley Minster. At Beverley he worked under the expert guidance of Dr Alan Spedding MBE.\nBefore taking up the post of Director of Music at King’s Worcester in September 2013\, his two previous posts were as Director of Music at King’s\, Rochester and Director of Chapel Music at Marlborough College. Whilst at Marlborough he directed the Chapel Choir on tours to Paris and Rome and took part in Masses at Notre Dame and St Peter’s. A CD of choral and instrumental music was also released celebrating the 125th anniversary of the College Chapel. At King’s he is responsible for the day to day running of the Music Department\, teaching all year groups and directing various ensembles. The Choir and Chamber Orchestra have taken part in two successful tours in recent years to Paris and\, in February this year\, Venice where they took part in Mass at St Mark’s Basilica. \n \n
