His performance at St Patrick’s Cathedral displayed exceptionally strong technique in support of the musical demands, resulting in fluid phrasing and a clearly defined structure.

The program covered three centuries of organ music, with J.S.Bach’s glorious St Anne Prelude and Fugue as the centrepiece.

The latter part of the program was dedicated to three 20th century Polish composers, revealing some hidden gems. The Rota, by Przybylski, was challenging in its language but ultimately irresistible in its dramatic impact.

Sydney organist David Drury, at St Paul’s Anglican Church, delivered a well-planned program, drawing on a lesser-known European repertoire and some familiar Bach.

With total security of technique, Drury brought out the subtle and colourful aspects of the varied program, playing an instrument that he is comfortable with.

Master Tallis’s Testament, by Herbert Howells, was one of the highlights which deserves to be heard more often, while Guilmant’s March on a theme of Handel closed the recital with great flair.

Explanations of the music contributed to a better understanding of the program.
