Bryan Rodwell commenced piano training at eight, making his first public appearance two years later and by his early teens he had carried out solo dance playing and broadcasting. At fourteen he toured with a youth symphony orchestra directed by the well known theatre organist Henry Croudson. Having learned the organ at his parish church, Bryan became assistant organist and later organist there and at sixteen he distinguished himself with a piano and organ recital at Leeds Town Hall. A few cinema organ lessons from Norman Briggs and the New Victoria Cinema in Bradford were followed by those from Charles Saxby. Having graduated as a cinema organist he made a series of guest appearances before joining the A.B.C. circuit. More history of the career of Bryan is contained on the insert to the CD!
