John Ferguson from Melbourne
John Ferguson played a concert for us last year, and was well received and has been invited back to play again this year. John has interests in piano and accordian as well as organ. His organ arrangements often reflect the style of accordian playing, with extremely fast and accurate fingering. John enjoys performing a widely varied program which includes opera, dance music, swing, Blackpool sounds, ballads, marches and waltzes.

Chris McPhee from Adelaide
Chris McPhee last played a concert on the Compton organ in October 2005, and it is testimony to his fine standard as a theatre organist, that he has been invited back less than 12 months since his last concert. Chris has played for many years on the Capri Wurlitzer organ in Adelaide, before other work commitments took him to country Victoria. He will present a concert of theatre organ music that should not be missed.
29 October 2006
Unfortunately the concert previously advertised with Paul Roberts on this date has been cancelled.

Thomas Heywood from Melbourne
Thomas Heywood is a world acclaimed organ virtuoso and has an outstanding reputation as one of the world�s finest concert organists. He is the first Australian musician in history to live as a professional concert organist. Although a theatre organ is not his normal instrument, he always manages to perform a very enjoyable concert of variety and difference.
