Since 1970 his numerous highly successful concert tours have taken Ben van Oosten to the foremost international organ venues, where he has emerged as one of the most remarkable organ virtuosos of our time. In addition to his concert career he gives organ masterclasses in many countries. He was Professor of Organ at Rotterdam Conservatory from 1994 until his retirement in 2021. He is an especially noted interpreter of French Symphonic repertoire, and in this 200th anniversary of César Franck’s birth, Ben’s programme in St Mary’s Pro Cathedral focuses on Franck’s music and that of his pupils.
