Upcoming Performances

Featuring performances from past and present College directors of music and organ scholars, each recital will run from 6.15pm until 7pm:

  • 27 October – Jordan Wong, Senior Organ Scholar, Jesus College

The recitals will showcase the full range of the 33 stop Hudleston organ, which was installed in 2007 following a generous donation from Mr James Hudleston, a benefactor of Jesus College and Fellow of the Society of St Radegund. It was the first organ in the UK to be built by Orgelbau Kuhn, Switzerland’s leading organ builders.

Visitors should enter the College using the pedestrian entrance on Jesus Lane. Signs will be on display to direct recital-goers to the Chapel. Programmes will be available to buy for £1.00.
