Bruce Ardley

Bruce commenced learning piano at the nine years of age then studied organ with Herbert Davies at Scots Church Melbourne and with Stanfield Holliday at the Regent Theatre Melbourne.

He was instrumental in initiating the rebuilding and installation of the Compton Organ in the Malvern Town Hall. After eight years work he had the honour on opening night of playing the organ as it was raised up from the pit.

Bruce has a love of film and this took him to another form of theatre, the musical accompaniment of silent movies. We can look forward to a great afternoon of music.
