A former Organ Student of St John’s College (1953-1956), Alan Stephen Hemmings (1931-2018) studied at the Royal College of Music during the late 1940s and early 1950s before reading Music at St John’s and serving in various roles on the committee of the College Music Society. He then pursued a career in teaching, notably at Clifton College where he is remembered as a gifted performer and inspirational teacher. A little-known composer, his understated yet beautiful chant setting to Psalm 85 has been treasured by the Choir of St John’s for generations.
