Join us for the Grand Organ Festival 2024 at Lincoln Cathedral. On Monday 28 October we are delighted that the recital will be by our very own Jeffrey Makinson, Organist and Assistant Director of Music at Lincoln Cathedral.
As always, there will be a screen so you can enjoy watching the recitalist in action up in the organ loft. There will also be an opportunity to meet the recitalist at the end of the performance
