Col Adamson
I'm Col Adamson; and my You Tube channel is mainly about organ music which I've played; often on my home 6 manual organ. I've worked in engineering (robotics, automation/ metal manufacturing) most of my working life, and my home instrument is largely a mechanical beast which was originally a 2 manual Estey Model E grand organ which I've added to / modified over the years. I am an Evangelical Anglican Minister and also work in a Bible college https://www.vbc.edu.au/ - I've also worked in music fields at St John's Cathedral in Sydney's west, and at St Thomas' North Sydney. I love the colour and expressiveness; breadth and depth of the organ. I've also given many recitals in and around Sydney over the years in both classical and theatre pipe organs as well as piano. Thanks for dropping by.
