Paul Walton (organ)About
The works on this recording span David Bednall’s compositional career to date. The Adagio was one of his earliest pieces, and Triptych in Honour of Herbert Howells is a major new work especially written for this recording. Two of the releases of his music on Regent have been Editor’s Choice in Gramophone, most recently Stabat Mater in the 2016 Awards issue.
Recognized as one of the leading composers of his generation, David Bednall studied for a PhD in composition with Professor John Pickard at the University of Bristol. He is Organist of The University of Bristol, Sub Organist at Bristol Cathedral and conducts The University Singers. He was Organ Scholar at The Queen’s College, Oxford, studied with Dr Naji Hakim and David Briggs and was Assistant Organist at Wells Cathedral.
This new recording of Bednall’s solo organ music is played on the magnficent Walker organ of Blackburn Cathedral by the brilliant young organist, Paul Walton, in his fourth solo disc for Regent. Paul Walton studied in Manchester with Matthew Owens and Margaret Phillips, and subsequently with Kevin Bowyer. Since 2001 he has been Assistant Organist of Bristol Cathedral.

‘…this pungent, turbulent style; it is music in a perpetual state of climax…’ - BBC Music Magazine
