75th Anniversary Organ Concert
Friday, September 24, 2010 to Friday, September 24, 2010

This concert will be a celebration of 75 years since the installation in 1935 of the magnificent pipe organ into the Bairnsdale Methodist church, where it was used for 55 years until being dismantled 20 years ago and rebuilt with additions into the Uniting Church. It has been an invaluable asset to both the Church and the wider community, and on this occasion will be played by world renowned virtuoso Thomas Heywood from Australia. This young and talented musician has just returned from his 2010 International Solo Concert Tour of the UK, the USA, and Europe, and will be playing some of the finest classical and romantic music. Interesting features of the evening will be his spirited and often humorous introductions, and a screen projection of his hands and feet at work. You will not be disappointed. Refreshments will be served during interval in this warm and comfortable venue at the Uniting Church. Tickets available from Collins Booksellers Bairnsdale; cash or cheque only. $20 adults $10 students.
