About Woodhall Spa and District Organ Society

The Woodhall Spa & District Organ Society has been in existence for over 25 years, to promote and encourage interest in electronic and theatre organs, both from the playing and listening viewpoint, and generally promote the Woodhall Spa & District Organ Society for the benefit of its members and guests. To widen our appeal we now promote our concerts under the name of "MUSIC FOR WOODHALL".

The “Music for Woodhall” concerts, hosted by the Woodhall Spa and District Organ Society have moved to Coronation Hall, Spa Road, Woodhall Spa, LN10 6PZ and are held on the first Friday of the month.

Coronation Hall offer us many advantages.  From the audience point of view there is a decent sized car park available, which is floodlit at night and is also covered by CCTV with 24 hour recording.  Access to the hall is on the level with no steps to negotiate. The hall is warm and comfortable. It is equipped with a nice Kitchen with a serving counter adjacent to a lounge area with comfortable seating. We layout small tables and chairs, cabaret style, for the audience and refreshments are brought to the tables during the interval.  The stage is fitted with an LED lighting system, complete with control desk, which greatly reduces the rigging time and the organists have a pleasant dressing area behind the stage.

OUR MARCH CONCERT WITH NICHOLAS MARTIN B.E.M.

Our March concert given by Club President Nicholas Martin B,E.M. was a tremendous success. The weather was reasonably kind to us and we had a good sized audience to hear an exciting programme of music played superbly by the maestro. It is no exageration to say you really couldn't hope to hear better.

He began with his signature tune "Hey Look me over!" quickly follwed by The Radetsky March. We had the Intermezzo from Cavelleria Rusticana. There was Angel in Blue, an exciting set of dance music and then a great performance of Theatreland" by Jack Strachey which had been requested by a member of the audience. He concluded the first half with a medley of 60s music. 

The wonderful music continued in the second half including with many  items dedicated to various members of the audience and the concert was brought to a tumultuous conclusion with Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance March - Land of Hope and Glory.

Next month we welcome back David Thomas who last visited Woodhall Spa in 2019. The concert takes place on Friday April 5th,.starting at 7.30pm and we look forward to welcoming you to Coronation Hall, Woodhall Spa.
