About
Richard Gowers is a renowned pianist, organist and conductor. As a concert organist he has given international recitals in locations including Sweden and Australia, and he teaches advanced keyboard skills at his alma mater, the Royal Academy of Music.
Richard’s programme celebrates the festival’s theme of music and literature, and showcases several Barnes composers through the distinctive character of the Peter Collins organ at St Mary’s Church.
He begins with Buxtehude’s Te Deum Laudamus, a composer who had significant influence on Bach. Then arrangements of William Walton’s Suite from Laurence Olivier’s film adaptation of Henry V, and Ralph Vaughan Williams’s Land of our birth.
Finally, two Barnes composers, Herbert Howells and Roxanna Panufnik. Howells’s Psalm Prelude is a musical meditation on a verse of Psalm 34, while Panufnik bases her rapturous ‘Gloria cum jubilo’ on ancient plainsong melodies and Bulgarian folk rhythms.
