None of us will ever forget the dark days of lockdown and the challenges it brought In such times, many music groups, societies and musicians were coming up with inspiring ways to keep occupied, keep in touch and, let's face it, keep going As a composer and musician, Tim's idea was to launch a competition for composers of organ music for anyone to enter who had the time and might need a bit of inspiration to get started Immediately the call went out asking for any potential sponsors Tony Packer, from Aspire Classical Organs, responded saying they would be delighted to get involved and we are very pleased to say that they have gone on to sponsor the prize money for all six of the competitions we have run to date It was clear from the start that we at Tim Knight Music and Aspire Classical Organs both shared the same passion for promoting music, musicians and, most of all, inspiring the next generation to keep church and organ music alive So, when Tim's next idea was broached to them of possibly having one of their organs in our new Studio in Leeds to use for teaching, recitals and practice sessions, Tony thought it was an excellent idea and promptly arrived on our doorstep from Wales with a beautiful new Ensign Compact 35 which is now happily installed and ready for use Tony's enthusiasm and love of these instruments is infectious and he and Tim seated, pictured with Tony above were like kids in a sweetie shop discovering all this very impressive organ has to offer This is what Aspire say about this exciting new range they now have in stock The Ensign Range boasts our revolutionary 'Physis+' technology, a pinnacle in organ innovation This groundbreaking system, combined with an extensive array of voicing tools, empowers you to customize the tonal character of your organ to suit the unique acoustics of your space https//ez3uk/Dd0G Imagine the harmonious marriage of technology and tradition, producing an unparalleled auditory experience tailored specifically for your environment As we said, this fantastic instrument is here to be used and enjoyed and, in particular, to inspire beginners to start playing and seasoned organists to keep on playing So, to book a practice session, organ lesson or a free viewing if you are interested in acquiring an organ for yourself or your church or group, call Tim Knight Music on 07342 139186 or Visit https//ez3uk/Dd0G for booking links Need a new digital organ for your home, school or church As an accredited https//wwwviscountorganswales/ , Aspire Classical Organs are committed to providing the finest level of service both pre and post sale Visit us online at https//wwwviscountorganswales/ We are also Viscount Authorised Service Agents and can provide immediate technical assistance and advice for your Instrument New Viscount Ensign Physis Plus Digital Organ range now in stock an available for immediate delivery
