His story

The Man Behind the Organ

If you have ever been moved to tears by the opening hymn at Cedarfold, you have Gregor to thank. Trained as a concert organist in Vienna, he traded the concert hall for the chapel loft in 2016 — and has led our singing, our choir and our prayers ever since.

He plans every evening service, runs the monthly prayer breakfast, and firmly believes that the congregation — not the choir — is the real instrument. The choir, he says, is just there to keep the rest of us brave.

What Gregor oversees

  • Worship, choir and all things musical
  • Evening prayer and the New Year prayer morning
  • Christmas and Easter music, from carols to cantatas

His favourite verse

“Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song.”

Psalm 95:1–2
