The Organist Encores

It's star organist time and we throw spotlight on Jackie Brown. A great romantic stylist and known for his long selections of music often after leaping on the console with no rehearsal.  On the 4th April 1968 he broadcast his first and only solo programme from the Granada Tooting. Theres also some extra material on the end - tune in to find out!

On this week's show Nigel Ogden is back in his archive with some historic new year broadcasts as well as concert excepts featuring rarely heard instruments!
