Mark Swinton at York Minster

Mark Swinton is Assistant Organist at Bath Abbey. Today he was in York to play four short pieces at York Minster.

One of the pieces, Swinton’s Cantus - Prelude on a Somerset folk tune, was by my friend, Bryan Boulter.

A short interlude of colour and light in an otherwise rainy and grey day in the heart of Yorkshire.

    I was at this recital in York Minster, too. Bryan Boulter’s piece really took me by the ears. A wonderful moment!

    jb says: That’s really unfair, Jeremy. Now I’ve got to put a face to a name.
