Wurlitzer Organ Concert: David Lobban and Damon Cox

David Lobban and Damon Cox are playing the Wurlitzer organ at the Assembly Hall on Sunday 22 November, from 14:30 to 16:50. It's a matinee, so you'll be out by half five.

If you've never spent much time with the organ in the Assembly Hall, it's worth knowing what you're actually listening to. It's one of the largest theatre organs in England, and by the hall's own records, the largest Wurlitzer in Europe. The sound comes from more than 1,500 pipes installed in two chambers behind the stage grilles, with pipes ranging from two inches to 16 feet in length. It's not just pipes, either — there are real percussion instruments built right into the instrument, so you're hearing more than just air through wood and metal.

That's the instrument Lobban and Cox will be working with for the afternoon. The Assembly Hall itself is on Stoke Abbott Road, one of the four venues that make up the Worthing Theatres network. Tickets are £18–£19, with a concession of £11–£12. It runs from 14:30 to 16:50 on Sunday 22 November.
