Grier: Organ Works

Francis Grier is a distinguished English composer and psychoanalyst, renowned for his significant contributions to both fields. As a composer, Grier's work is deeply rooted in the choral and requiem genres, showcasing his profound musicality and emotional depth. His compositions, such as 'Anthem For Saint Cecilia's Day' and 'A Celebration of All Saints', have been commissioned and performed by esteemed musicians, highlighting his standing in the classical music world.

Before his psychoanalytic career, Grier was a prolific organist, serving at prestigious institutions like Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, and King's College, Cambridge. He made history by delivering the first-ever Prom concert dedicated to a solo performer in 1985. His musical journey began early, as a chorister at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, and the first music scholar at Eton College.

In his psychoanalytic practice, Grier is a training and supervising analyst of the British Psychoanalytical Society and a full member of the Society of Couple Psychoanalytic Psychotherapists. He brings the same dedication and insight to his analytical work as he does to his compositions, creating a unique blend of artistic and therapeutic expertise.
