Two Voluntaries by Thomas Weelkes performed by Ben Bloor on the 3 stop 1979 (restored 1998) Peter Collins chamber organ in St Wilfrid's chapel (London Oratory) on Thursday 21st January 2021.
Thomas Weelkes was famed as much for his music as his bad behaviour in church. When listening to such well-constructed music as these two brief voluntaries, one could hardly equate them to a composer who was dismissed on numerous occasions from his work at Chichester Cathedral for drunken behaviour and swearing. Nevertheless, they paint a more human picture of this fantastic mind.
Ben Bloor is Organist at the London Oratory Church and School Organist at Westminster School. For more information, please visit www.benbloor.com
