Since his acclaimed London debut at age 18,
Dr Tim Rishton has enjoyed
a distinguished international career as concert organist, broadcaster,
author and lecturer, also holding posts at Norwegian and British
universities. Locally born, from a Ribble-Valley family, he returned home to
live in Pendle two years ago.
He studied with Susi Jeans and at the universities of Reading (winning all
organ-playing prizes), Manchester and Wales, where he took a doctorate
in 18th-century music and later lectured, subsequently becoming Professor
at a Norwegian university.
Although best known for the German Baroque repertoire, his performance
repertoire has been wide-ranging. This winter he is playing in Italy (Rome,
Venice, and Turin), Norway, Germany (Berlin, Magdeburg, Bogenburg
Festival), England, Scottish cathedrals and universities and France.
He has given lectures and master classes (several of them broadcast) in
Norwegian, English and Welsh at many universities. He has made regular
radio and television broadcasts, on the Norwegian channel NRK, as well
as on HTV, S4C and BBC - most recently BBC1's televised Christmas
service from Skipton.
He has made a number of solo recordings, as well as recordings with Aled
Jones, Simon Roberts and others. He is currently recording a CD of Italian
Baroque music, a double CD of Bach's Art of Fugue, and preparing a CD
of Norwegian organ music, including two major works especially written for
the occasion.
As well as published organ music and many articles in scholarly journals
and in The Revised New Grove and the German music encyclopaedia Die
Musik in Geschichte und Gegenwart , Tim has written a number of books,
one of which (on liturgical organ playing) has been translated from
Norwegian into various languages. His latest book on organ playing
will be published at the end of this year.
