SH = Singing Hills, ESN = East Sussex National 2025 September 21st - DR. CAROL WILLIAMS & MICHAEL WOOLDRIDGE IN A SOUNDS SPECTAULAR AFTERNOON - ESN Two internationally renowned players combine to provide a sparkling afternoon of solos and duets featuring our Wurlitzer and Carlo Curley organs October 5th - ANDREW NIX - SH Always guaranteed to give us an afternoon packed with music and mirth, we are delighted that Andrew is travelling down from Yorkshire to open our season October 19th - An Afternoon at the Silent Movies! with Afternoon Tea and MICHAEL WOOLDRIDGE at the Wurlitzer - ESN Following the success of our silent film night in 2024, we are back, this time with a double bill featuring the one and only Buster Keaton. One of the true masters of silent film comedy, we are screening perhaps the funniest silent film short, One Week, and the comedy adventure Sherlock Junior, both accompanied with a live score improvised as we watch by Michael Wooldridge at the Wurlitzer. At the interval we will enjoy a superb afternoon tea. November 9th - CAMERON LLOYD and DAMON COX - SH A special afternoon featuring two enjoyable but contrasting styles. Cameron specialises in recreating the sounds of the legendary Mr. Blackpool, Reginald Dixon, and Damon Cox is well known to enthusiasts from his regular broadcasts on The Organist Encores December 7th - MICHAEL WOOLDRIDGE - SH It’s Christmas Music all the way with our resident organist featuring the lush, festive sounds of our mighty Wurlitzers December 14th - ROBERT WOLFE CHRISTMAS SHOW - ESN Always a firm favourite with our audiences, we are delighted Robert is back to spread his the joy of his musical Christmas Cheer 2026 February 1st - CHRIS STANBURY & BERNARD TILLEY - SH Chris is our assistant resident organist at the East Sussex National, playing there for dancing, but in concert he is well loved through the UK for his wide range of stylings. Bernard is rarely seen on the concert scene but from an early start playing the Wurlitzer at the Granada Welling, and others, now spends much of his time playing ‘in the pit’ for musicals March 1st - KEVIN GRUNILL - SH We round off our 25/26 season at Singing Hills with more Music and Memories from this master musician and organ builder, who really wowed the audience with his 2024 performance at Singing Hills

for any reason we have had to

amend our schedule.

Assistant Organists Chris Stanbury

(CS), or Cameron Lloyd (CL), who

is one of the busiest players in the

UK and often plays the fanous

Playing the mighty Wurlitzer, it is

like an afternoon at the world

famous Blackpool Tower, with a

mixture of Ballroom, Latin and

Popular Sequence Dances. Some of

the audience don’t dance but just

come along to enjoy listening to the

music and soaking up the

atmosphere.
