              <text>Raymond G Sunderland started learning the organ at the age of 12 and until he was 16 he studied with his father, the organist of Broadstone Baptist Church, Colden.&#13;
&#13;
During the Second World War he served in the Royal Armoured Corps and in 1944-45, whilst serving in Belgium, he gave a series of organ recitals from memory in Ypres Cathedral. After the war, he studied with Shackleton Pollard at Halifax Parish Church and served there as Assistant Organist. In 1951 he gained his FRCO and was appointed organist and choirmaster at Burnley Parish Church in Lancashire; whilst there he also became organist to the Halifax Choral Society. In 1955 he moved to St. Edmunds Church, Roundhay, Leeds, before being appointed in 1957 to his final post as Organist and Master of the Choristers at Bridlington Priory Church. Raymond Sunderland's "abilities as a performer, and not least as an improviser of immense talent, were widely acclaimed."&#13;
&#13;
Raymond died in the early hours of Christmas morning 1977 in Bridlington Priory, having just played the organ for the Midnight Communion; he is buried in the Priory churchyard. (Wikipedia)&#13;
&#13;
Raymond’s brother, Dennis, was organist and choirmaster at St Michael’s, Mytholmroyd.&#13;
&#13;
This is a fine example of Alice Longstaff's skill at hand tinting in the days before colour photography became readily available. Also, after the wedding it was common up until the 50s and even into the 60s for the main party to go back to the photographer’s studio for the photographs.&#13;
