Please see attached the details of an organist's post at All Saints, Maidstone. We have of course a long-standing relationship with this church, which has hosted our Organ Competition on many occasions, and are happy to advertise this post for them.

The church of St Mary's Platt is also seeking an organist. Details are in the attachments. Longer-standing members will of course know that the late Gary Tollerfield (KCOA Secretary 1990-1999 and President 1987-89) was for many years organist at Platt and was indeed very much responsible for the installation of the en chamade reeds mentioned in the supplementary info; not to mention that the said reeds were installed by our very own Colin Jilks.

If interested in the post, please reply to the church as shown in the 'organist advert' file.
