The world of music lost a great organist and choral conductor on 25 February 2025, when Dr Simon Lindley passed away aged 76, following a short illness.
In accordance with Dr Lindley’s wishes, a simple funeral was held at St John’s Church, Moor Allerton (LS17 7BZ) on Tuesday 8 April at 12 noon.
The service was relayed to the many mourners who gathered outside, since the church is very small, and was followed by his burial in the churchyard.
A Requiem Mass sung to the music of Maurice Duruflé will take place at Leeds Minster on Thursday 10 April at 8.00pm.
It is intended that a celebratory concert in memory of Dr Lindley will take place on
Saturday 18 October – more details will be announced when available.
