Mary began learning the organ at St John’s Church, Buxton, then at 16 at the Royal Manchester College of Music under Ronald Frost. As Organ Scholar at Girton College, Mary studied with Peter le Huray. Alongside her school teaching career, Mary is a church organist and choir trainer and has taught a significant number of organ pupils. Giving regular organ recitals, she is passionate about enabling young people to experience playing the organ. Mary is especially keen to promote women as recitalists so that they may become a rarity no longer.
