A talk by John Logan 'Wagner from the Pit'. This will consist of a player’s perspective to the performing of Wagner. John Logan has enjoyed almost thirty years of playing in many of the UK’s top orchestras including the London Symphony Orchestra, the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra with Simon Rattle, and a seventeen year tenure as Associate Principal Horn with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra.  As well as having the position of Head of Brass at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, John is busy as a conductor, arranger, and composer and has a special interest in bringing the world of folk and traditional music together with the symphony orchestra.

The aim of the Society is to promote knowledge and appreciation of the works of Richard Wagner.  The Society is open to all and hosts a number of events. They have a number of activities, one of which is raising money for a Bayreuth Scholarship,  to contribute towards the visit of a promising young artist to the Bayreuth Festival.

New members are always welcome!

Members £7, Non-members £15 or pitch up and join.
