Celebrate 10! - 24 Hour Organ Play-a-thon
2023 marks the 10th anniversary of the completion of the Nicholson and Co. organ at Llandaff Cathedral.
To celebrate we have planned events that explore the diverse repertoire of the organ, from delicate accompanying instrument to virtuosic solo showstopper. There’s something for everyone during the year; from a Cymanfa Ganu celebrating the welsh hymn, to silent film improvisation and a 24 hour playathon.
We are proud to offer this year of celebration for your enjoyment. However, to keep the cost of these events accessible to everyone we need your support.
Every penny really does count! The great news is that you can Gift Aid your donation, adding 25% value at no extra cost to you.
3rd-4th March - Organ Play-a-thon
24 hours of continuous music, 12+ organists, one professional choir and a lot of stamina will be required over the course of this unique event. The organists of Llandaff Cathedral will be joined by organists from around Cardiff for this marathon of music.
Pop in during the day, or embrace the full experience with a lock in after hours and glamp in the nave!
Don’t miss a note! - The whole 24 hours will also be streamed on YouTube.
Hymns galore
Nominate your favourite hymn to be performed during the Beer and Hymns event on Saturday 4th March at 2pm. Hearty singing and delicious refreshments are guaranteed.
Donate £10 and request your hymn!
Blindfold challenge
If we have reached our target of £5000 at the end of the Play-a-thon our very own Assistant Director of Music, Aaron Shilson, will attempt to play the organ piece to end all organ pieces while wearing a blindfold...
