This is a collection of reminiscences of a church organist in the North East of England and in Norfolk. Running alongside the anecdotes is the unfolding story of the journey of a non-establishment musician towards acceptance by musicians in the highest echelons of English church music and international recitalists.Ronald Watson's musical inventiveness has manifested itself in experiments in musical notation and in compositions for choirs and for the organ which have brought him recognition and performances, recordings and broadcasts of his music worldwide.
