Deputy Organist

What a clear and understandable website. I am not a professional organist but love playing for worship and entertainment. I am looking for a regular organist for the Christian Spiritualist Church in Bridgwater. We need someone who can play a few hymns etc. The instrument is only a single manual. No foot pedals!!! [If you can help please e-mail the webmaster in the first instance.]

Although I have played the organ for many years I feel I can't call myself an organist, I'm a bit better as a  trumpet player. I looked at your site as my son Phiilipis Organist & Master of the Choristers at Lichfield Cathedral and until going to Westminster Abbey as a chorister lived in Chard. I did think while on your site it is a pity that he hasn't been invited to play at Wells. His reputation is well recognised. You can look him up on the Google search engine. Your site is well put together, congratulations.

I am planning our summer holiday, and as usual organs figure![as do steam trains!!]I am browsing the local organ society websites with this in mind. We usually go to East Germany,but think that somewhere in Somerset,Devon or Cornwall this year.

Just to say that you have created a very fine website.  I was wondering where you got all the pictures from as I am looking for similar artwork?

Delighted to see that the web site has become a reality. We hope that it will encourage more people to take an active interest in the events that are arranged and may SOCA go from strength to strength.

Adrian Smith

Webmaster for this site

Taunton, UK

Thank you for inviting me to build this site for SOCA.  I love organ and choral music (especially Bach) but have little musical talent, so it has been a pleasure to contribute to the Association in this way. I hope that the website is of help to SOCA for many years. Best wishes to Derek, Brendan, Ruth, Alan and all members.
