Spring finally seems to have arrived – the incessant rain certainly has abated reminding us what a blue sky actually looks like in real life... February has been an exciting month – not just because of Dr. Jackson with Nigel Ogden the last YDOA event with Gordon Stewart's excellent concert at the little known but lovely organ at St Barnabas, Leeman Road, but also because of the best attended URC Organ Concert Series so far! We had fantastic players and next year's players are already booked! This year, however, Simon Lindley's “Last Noon of the Proms” concert had us all waving flags and singing “Jerusalem”, while the unexpected attraction was being honoured by the attendance at every single concert by our Dr. Jackson with Chris Newton Patron, Dr. Francis Jackson. May I express our thanks for his so very special support! This month's edition had a very special contribution from our own YDOA Vice President, Max Elliott. He has researched long and hard and found details of past YDOA events which are now published here – and you are welcome to reminisce in the old, Dr. Jackson with Simon Lindley familiar formatting from the good ol' days when Max was editor of the PipeLine!

Last year a number of YDOA members set out to see what manner of instrument was to be found at St Barnabas' Church. As none of us had ever visited there before so Max contacted the vicar who being most friendly, warmly invited us to go and have a play. What a treat it was too! An untouched 1905 Thomas Hopkins and Son of York – in fact it dates from the same year as the 'sister' instrument (sadly no longer there), built for Clifton Parish Church. Although it is not in regular Gordon Stewart playing the organ at use on Sundays, it receives St Barnabas, Max Elliott turning pages an annual tuning and maintenance visit from Geoffrey Coffin who has managed to keep on top of the faults. The specification is modest yet it fills the church and the tone of the instrument is most pleasant to the ear. During our preliminary visit, we played a number of pieces to each other, listening from the other side of the chancel and we all agreed that this instrument although a little boxed in behind a couple of archways, did have a wide range of colours and coped with equally well with Bach and Mendelssohn and Stanford......and all the other pieces we played that afternoon. In fact we enjoyed ourselves so much that through the initiative of Max Elliott and the co-operation of the Vicar, the idea of a Gordon entertaining celebrity recital was born and having gone that far, why not make it a in between pieces public concert, AND an annual event? The February YDOA event follows on neatly after the Saturday lunchtime series of concerts at St Columba's Priory Street and much additional advertising was possible to the audiences there. St Barnabas PCC promoted the concert , so in combined strength with YDOA members the event attracted a turn-out of A Fabulous Turn-Out: The Benches were Packed!!! - 4 - YDOA PipeLine March 2016 nearly 50 people – most encouraging and satisfying! Gordon Stewart introduced and played a tuneful and attractive programme which showed off the instrument to great advantage: Handel Overture “Occasional Oratorio” Stanley Toccata for the Flutes Handel Concerto - The Cuckoo and the Nightingale Elgar Salut d'Amour Rawsthorne Celtic Lament Cockroft Scherzetto Bach Toccata and Fugue in D minor Dazzled by Technology - Francis It was great to meet Gordon again, and to hear Jackson's First Selfie taken by Gordon him perform. It was good to meet numerous members of the musical fraternity of York who do not usually attend YDOA events. Our patron Francis Jackson was there, Helen Roberts baked some of her legendary tasty cakes and there was much socialising afterwards over the refreshments provided by the church. Thanks must go to the Vicar and the PCC of St Barnabas' Church, Maximillian Elliott and the generous sponsorship of the Alan Dronsfield Trust.
