NEWS FROM OUR WORKSHOP

Pipe tribute to retiring cathedral organist

4/3/2018

0 Comments

 
An embossed organ pipe made by Shires is presented to retiring cathedral organist Ian Barber.
The remarkable contribution of organist Ian Barber to the life of Belfast Cathedral over 35 years was recognised at a special Choral Evensong.

Among the many tributes was one by a former choir lay clerk, Philip Prosser, left, who presented Ian with a gift of a mounted, embossed organ pipe in polished tin.

Philip says: “It was beautifully made in the workshop of my friend Terry Shires with the wooden walnut mount by my son Steve, himself a past chorister of the Cathedral.”

We were delighted to be invited to make this gift to a dedicated and widely respected cathedral musician.
