ORGAN FESTIVAL HAD CAPACITY AUDIENCE


The Organ Recital which included the Battle of Organs filled Clitheroe P ar i sh Church with an audience of more than eight hundred, and must have been very gratifying to Clitheroe Parish Church Organ Society who had organised the event on behalf of the Royal College of O r g a n i s t ’ s Centenary Appeal Fund. In. the church there were
