Wonderful Schulze Organ

wonderful Schulze Organ
  • Venue/Location:Doncaster Minster of St George
  • Date: 24 Feb 23

Another recital to continue the series played on the wonderful Schulze Organ in the beautiful setting of Doncaster Minster, DN1 1RD

The organ in St. George’s Doncaster is the work of Edmund Schulze of Paulinzelle in Saxony, and dates from 1862, four years after the completion of the present church building.

The firm of Schulze had exhibited an organ in the Great Exhibition of 1851 and this marked the beginning of a wide influence in this country. The Doncaster instrument is their largest organ.
