 JEREMY
PLUMMER was organ scholar at Brasenose College, Oxford between 1967
and 1970 where he studied the organ with John Webster at
University College and James Dalton at Queen's College. Since then
he has been organist at a number of places, including All Saints
Church in High Wycombe and St Mary's Church in Hayes. He has also
been Director of Music at "The Nave" in Uxbridge and at
the Lee Abbey Fellowship in North Devon.
He has a wide experience as a choir trainer
and as an accompanist on piano, organ and harpsichord. Since taking
a post-graduate degree in Music Education at Reading
University in 1990 he has had a developing interest in the way
in which meeting music changes people, particularly in the context
of Christian worship. This had led to a series of workshops in Music
and Worship, Music and Prayer, and Music and Healing.
Jeremy is currently organist at Kintbury
Parish Church, where his wife Debby is priest-in-charge, and
teaches at Reading College, John O'Gaunt School and for the
Berkshire Young Musicians' Trust, as well as accompanying and giving
recitals locally. He also plays for the Tillingham Music Festival.
His particular interests in organ music are the music of J S Bach -
so much so that he has done a "sponsored play" of the
complete works - and in twentieth century organ music, Hindemith and
Kenneth Leighton being favourites.
