D’Arcy Trinkwon is one of today’s outstanding virtuoso organists, a world-class musician acclaimed for his artistic distinction.
Respected for his dedication to the organ as a concert instrument, his mission to bring it to as wide an audience as possible – without musical compromise – demonstrates that it is the finest music that draws people to the sometimes esoteric world of the organ. Combining innate aesthetic perception with musical scholarship, he is served by a transcendental technique and an exceptional ear for aural colour – and the rare gift frequently commented on to make the organ an emotionally expressive medium.
He has been described as “the Nureyev of the organ” – a reference not only to his extraordinary technique (particularly of the pedals), but also to the magic and passion with which he communicates his art and among the things which set him apart is his rare mastery of all the different schools of repertoire.
Alongside his concert career, D’Arcy is the Organist of Worth Abbey.
“D’Arcy Trinkwon is a master of phrasing and the sensitivity of his artistry gives new life to the great Romantic works… Apart from his great awareness of nuances, it is this gifted musician’s mastery of colour that allows him to further illuminate unimagined perspectives in often complex works…
Trinkwon earned enthusiastic applause for his technically immaculate playing and his great virtuosity. His splendid, but nevertheless subtle virtuosity combined with considerable artistic integrity to demonstrate that he is one of the really great artists of his genre”
