THREE NORFOLK ORGANS | A film with James McVinnie

James McVinnie was an Artist in Residence at Norfolk & Norwich Festival 2026. Three Norfolk Organs is a film produced as part of that residency: an exploration of three notable instruments in and around Norwich, in which James examines their significance, their resonances, and their history. The film was shown during the Festival at St Peter Mancroft, prior to James’ performance of Bach’s Clavier-Übung III. Commissioned by Norfolk & Norwich Festival. With thanks to Norwich Cathedral, St Peter Mancroft, and St Agnes, Cawston. Supported by the John Jarrold Trust.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for over 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
