Birmingham Trip March 2025

 

We hope to visit both the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire and the two Cathedrals between the 10th and 14th March with an opportunity to visit Coventry Cathedral on the  return journey. Arrangements are at an early stage at present and will be confirmed later. However it is likely that travel and accommodation will need to be organised on an individual basis.

The dates have been chosen to coincide with a visit by Nathan Laube from the Eastman School in New York who we hope will be giving a Master Class. Members may remember Nathan gave the inaugural recital on the new Canterbury Cathedral Organ and is now tutoring Charles Francis who will also have an input during our visit.

Expressions of interest would be welcome please to Jim Bryant at james_bryant1@sky.com

NB Numbers are likely to be limited to 15 and I have been quoted a price of £35.70 per person for group rail travel from Euston to Birmingham return with a 'stop over' in Coventry on the way back. However this is likely to increase and we would need to book ASAP to secure the rate.

Here are two links giving some information about the Conservatoire:
