4.00pm - Sydney Grammar School, College Street

Four students from Sydney Grammar School will be joining Robert Wagner to present a concert of organ music on the beautiful 2004 Mander organ. Traditionally, this concert is a Bach birthday celebration however this year it is broadening out the scope of repertoire to allow more of the boys to play.

JSB will still be suitably fêted though by bookending the programme, including the magnificent Passacaglia in c minor.

The concert will last approximately 50 minutes and admission is free.

You would be very welcome.
