Luke Mitchell organ

Recent organ scholar at The Queen’s College, Oxford and one of the instrument’s fast-rising talents, Luke Mitchell wraps up our organ recital series with an all-Bach programme including the three Gloria settings from the composer’s Clavierübung III.
Among the relative rarities on the menu is the unusually eloquent O Mensch Bewein’ Dein’ Sünde Gross from Bach’s Orgelbüchlein, in which the well-known passion chorale is elaborated with an ornamental melody to moving effect. To open his recital, Luke brings us one of the very greatest Preludes and Fugues for organ to have sprung from Bach’s pen, in the composer’s favoured melancholic key of B minor.

Free entry with retiring collection (no tickets required)
