James' recital on the afternoon of 23 March 2024 has a programme of the type of music that Downes would have had in his ears, Sermisy, Praetorius, Sweelinck, Pachelbel, Böhm, Buxtehude and Bach [see Southbank Centre website]. But in his second recital on the evening of 23 March, James is exploring the other end of the repertoire with a performance of Infinity Gradient, the 2021 tour-de-force for organ and 100 speakers by American composer and sound artist Tristan Perich.
