the champniss organ scholar
Our current organ scholar is Evan Lawrence
Evan grew up in Dublin, where he began playing the violin and the piano at age 6. He began singing in Ireland’s national broadcast children’s choir, Cór na nÓg, at the age of 11. Here, he was encouraged by accompanist Dr. Carole O’Connor to take organ lessons, and became her student for the next few years. During this time, he won several prestigious organ competitions in Ireland’s National Classical Music Festival, the Feis Ceoil, being awarded his debut recital in 2021 as part of the Pipeworks Organ Festival in Dublin. Evan became more involved in Anglican church music when he was appointed Junior Organ Scholar at Christ Church Cathedral in 2018. He continued piano and violin lessons alongside this in the Royal Irish Academy of Music with Professors Hugh Tinney and Maeve Broderick respectively.
He moved to London in September 2021 to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree in Violin Performance with the leader of the renowned Brodsky Quartet, Krysia Osotowicz, at the Guildhall School, and took up the role of Organ Scholar in St Mary’s Church, Battersea. During his time at St Mary’s, he began organ lessons with Anne Marsden Thomas, and completed his LTCL piano diploma and ARCO organ diploma. He has taken part in masterclasses with esteemed professors such as Daniel Moult, Katelyn Emerson, Henry Fairs and Gerard Brooks. From September 2023, Evan is the Organ Scholar of Grosvenor Chapel, alongside which he continues his role as Guy’s Chapel Organist, accompanies Mayfair Community Choir and plays regularly for evensong at St Mary’s Battersea.
