Simon Bell, Director of Choral Music and Organist at Deans Close School in Cheltenham gave a superb concert the previous Monday. The music included works by Guilmant, Bach, Mendelssohn and Elgar. His finale was a performance of the complete Symphonie VI by Widor. It was excellent to have it played in its entirety. His dexterity and strength of fingerwork were very impressive, coupled with great sensitivity in the lyrical movements. An extremely talented musician who greatly delighted his large audience.
