Peter Wright is President of the Royal College of Organists and Director of Music at Southwark Cathedral. Under his direction the Choir has recorded five CDs, undertaken three tours to the USA and several to the continent and broadcast regularly on television and radio, including recording the signature-tune for Mr Bean for Thames Television.

He is in great demand both as a conductor and a recitalist, with recent performances in Japan, South Africa, USA, Bermuda, Australia and New Zealand, and is sure to make a huge impact with the glorious organ of Ampleforth Abbey.
