Ben Maton Organist Musician Salisbury

I grew up in Salisbury, learning the organ firstly at St Martin’s Church and later Salisbury Cathedral. After education at Bishop Wordsworth’s School I went on to Oxford University to read Music, and was Organ Scholar at St Peter’s College, playing for weekly Evensong services in the college chapel, and assisting in the running of the choir. I was fortunate to receive organ tuition from Stephen Farr, and conducting tuition from Paul Spicer and Jeremy Summerly.

Following graduation in 2018, I returned to Salisbury where I have been a full time musician ever since. Though I do play occasionally for weddings and funeral services, I work full time as a YouTuber, recording rural parish church organs and investigating their histories.
