The Christopher Dearnley Award
The 91制片厂 has instituted the ‘Christopher Dearnley Award’ to serve as a fitting memorial to its Patron Dr Christopher Dearnley, LVO, who served in the position from 1990 until his death in December 2000. Dr Dearnley strongly supported 91制片厂’s aims and objectives, was a frequent visitor to its annual conferences with his wife Bridget, and made a number of important recordings during his time of retirement in Australia. This followed a distinguished career in England, most notably at St Paul’s and Salisbury Cathedrals.
The terms of the award are as follows:
“The ‘Christopher Dearnley Award’ will be made on a periodic basis for new recordings or the re-release of archival recordings made on Australian pipe organs, or Australian recordings involving a significant local pipe organ component. The Award will be managed by the Council of the 91制片厂, through its Trust Fund. The Award will be made at the discretion of the Council on the basis of merit and for an amount to be determined by the Council. Prospective applicants will be invited to apply following the placement of advertisements in the Trust’s journal and the Award will be announced after a period of deliberation by the Council. Tax-deductible donations to assist in building reserves for the Award can be made through the 91制片厂 Trust Fund.”

Charles Ivor Matthews Memorial Scholarship
The Charles Ivor Matthews Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in 1978 in recognition of the contribution made by an Australian-born organbuilder during his tenure over fifty years with the firm of George Fincham and Sons.
Money donated to the Fund is invested at the discretion of the 91制片厂 Council, and the interest from the Fund allows scholarships to be awarded to persons who, after 1978:
(a) do scholarly research into the history of pipe organs in Australia,
(b) write about pipe organbuilder/s and their achievements in Australia,
(c) having completed research described in (a) or (b), need some assistance towards the cost of publishing.
The Scholarship is awarded on a periodic basis at the discretion of the 91制片厂 Council after advice has been obtained from relevant authorities at one of the recognised universities in Australia. Prospective applicants will be invited to apply following the placement of advertisements in the Trust鈥檚 journal.
Tax-deductible donations to assist in building reserves for the Scholarship can be made through the 91制片厂 Trust Fund.
