129. Organ Recital by the Lord Mayor

Despite having a fantastically busy schedule, the Lord Mayor still finds time to practice his first love of music. Alderman Dr Andrew Parmley is an accomplished organist and on the evening of the United Guilds Service he gave a 45 minute recital in the lovely St Stephen Church in Walbrook in the City of London.

This event was well attended by Master’s and their Consorts and we all felt privileged to hear the Lord Mayor (who is an Honorary Liveryman of our Company) play. The recital comprised of a wide range of 9 pieces and he deservedly got a standing ovation at the end.

What a talented man.
