Pavel Ralev (guitar)
Holy Trinity Church, Weston 7.30pm
Described by John Williams as “a poet of the guitar”, the London-based Bulgarian classical guitarist Pavel Ralev is establishing a strong presence on the international concert platform. In 2023, he was conferred as an Associate of the Royal Academy of Music, London, in recognition of his “significant contribution” to the music profession. Pavel made his Wigmore Hall debut in November 2023, under the auspices of the Julian Bream Trust (“an unforgettable performance”, Gendai Guitar Magazine).

Anne Page (Organ)
Holy Trinity Church, Weston 7.30 pm
Anne Page is well known to audiences in the UK and abroad as an organist of great virtuosity, integrity and musicianship. She made her London debut at the Royal Festival Hall playing 20th century masterpieces, and an international recital career followed. During 2011/12 she performed the complete organ works of Bach on 14 instruments in 11 chapels and churches.
We are hoping that Anne will do an afternoon masterclass, followed by an evening concert in which she will demonstrate the full potential of our small organ in Holy Trinity Church.
