Organ Recital with Alastair Stone

|All Saints Church, Faringdon
All Saints boasts a wonderful organ, very similar to the one at New College Oxford, both built by Grant, Degens and Bradbeer around 1969. The instrument is highly praised by many professional organists. Since starting this concert series it has been our mission to have it played more often.
