| | 'The Incorporated Association of Organists was formed in about 1916. It is the umbrella organisation for some 90 affiliated organists' associations and individual members throughout the United Kingdom and internationally. 'Many of the IAO's 6,000 members are organists and/or choir trainers and one of its principal activities is to help with the improvement of standards at all levels. 'Of course you do not have to be an organist or choirmaster to belong to the IAO and enjoy the benefits of membership. Anyone who loves the organ and its music, whether a player or not, is welcome to join the IAO. Those who live in the United Kingdom are probably not too far from one of our affiliated associations. These associations may have anything from 25 to more than 200 members but whatever their size, they all have regular programmes of interesting activities, such as recitals, visits, talks, master classes, training and social events.' |
