VACANCY FOR ORGANIST/DIRECTOR OF MUSIC
St Nicholas, Rotherfield Greys, near Henley on Thames, seeks an enthusiastic and able organist.
The impressive Walker organ has just been restored and enlarged, including a modern piston capture system and a new 16’ reed, and is a most rewarding instrument to play.
Until an Associate Priest is appointed we currently only have two services a month: a BCP Choral evensong and a Traditional words Eucharist (sung to Merbecke) plus an occasional 5th Sunday Benefice Service and of course, the traditional seasonal festivals. For the future, once an associate priest has been appointed, we hope to resume weekly services.
The loyal congregation is very appreciative of music and would be very supportive of our new organist
The small, friendly and keen choir enjoy regular practice, and an organist prepared to continue this tradition would be ideal- perhaps adjourning to the next door pub afterwards!
Remuneration and fees by negotiation.
If you would like an informal discussion or indeed a trial play of the organ then please contact the Benefice Office 01491 628297 or [email protected]. For full details please contact the Priest in Charge, Rev. Mark Ainsworth on: [email protected].
