7th Anniversary of Penistone Orgn

News posted on the 10th April 07

The Penistone Cinema Organ Trust are presenting a special concert on Saturday 14th April to celebrate the 7th Anniversary of the installation of the Compton Cinema Organ at The Penistone Paramount. This year marks the 70th Birthday of the Compton Organ, which was originally installed in the Paramount/Odeon, Birmingham. Opened at The Penistone Paramount in April 2000 by Nigel Ogden & Kevin Grunill, it is fitting that there are two special events organised to take place during this celebratory year.

Kevin Grunill is to perform the 7th Anniversary concert on Saturday 14th April at 2.30pm. It is fitting for Kevin to be seated at the console on this special occasion, for not only does he own this fine Compton Cinema Organ but this date also marks another special celebration for Kevin - His 35th Birthday ! Music for everyone is guarenteed and there will be several interesting items using the large screen projection facilities, which are available at this wonderful venue. Tickets for this event are selling fast, so don't delay - BOOK TODAY.

Nigel Ogden will be performing the Comptons' 70th Birthday concert at the Penistone Paramount on Saturday 15th September at 2.30pm. Having performed on this instrument in each of its previous installations, Nigel will once again be putting the Compton through its paces with an entertaining mix of music to suit all tastes.

Tickets are available in advance by telephoning 07944 566972.
