Memorial Service - St Barnabus, Kensington

I played ‘Abide with Me’ (Eventide), ‘It is well with my soul’ (Ville du Havre) and ‘Here is love’ (Cymraeg) with the Quintabile Brass Quintet on Friday 4 October 2024 at St Barnabus in Kensington. The music formed part of a memorial service, which had been written by the gentleman (in his early thirties) who sadly lost his battle with cancer. The memorial service featured a great deal of music including a recording of his piano playing, and it also included around a dozen professional musicians comprising an organist, brass quintet, and rock band. My thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time; it was wonderful to see that so many of them attended this memorial service (c. 200) in this beautiful part of west London.
