Caird Hall show teaches youngsters about ‘the finest concert organ in Scotland’
ByThe Courier Reporter
Six-hundred schoolchildren from Dundee and the surrounding area have been learning about the city’s famous Caird Hall organ.
They were given an insight into the instrument by international concert organist Daniel Moult.
Using light and smoke shows to tell the story of the organ’s history, Mr Moult created a visual spectacular for the youngsters.
With the help of volunteers from the audience and a big screen projection, the organist also showed the children how the organ works and how the player combines the different sounds to make music.
The organ was designed by blind player Alfred Hollins.
The instrument has previously been hailed by eminent recitalists as “the finest concert organ in Scotland”.
