Wellingham Organ Studies Library

The John Wellingham Organ Studies Library

The John Wellingham Organ Studies Library at Jesus College collects organ music and supporting literature with a particular focus on scholarly editions of music from the eighteenth century and before.

Housed in Jesus College Chapel, the library was created with funds donated in tribute to John Wellingham, who for many years taught and inspired organ scholars at Oxford University. In recognition of John Wellingham’s influential teaching, several volumes have been donated by his great friend and colleague, Christopher Hogwood.

The full contents of the library are listed HERE and can also be found on SOLO. Further information about the Wellingham Library can be obtained from the curator, Dr Alex Flood, from the College Librarian at Jesus College and from the Betts Scholar.

Access to the Wellingham Library is available to all organ scholars, college organists, organ teachers and chapel directors of music of Oxford University. Additional access may be granted upon request.
