Geoffrey Oliver Tristram (2 August 1917 – 5 June 1979) was a British organist, recitalist and teacher.
Raised in Worcestershire and Reading, Tristram gained his Fellowship of the Royal College of Organists aged 17 before moving to Bournemouth following the Second World War. There he was Organist and Choirmaster of Christchurch Priory from 1949 until his death, and became renowned for the high quality and prodigious number of his recitals and BBC broadcasts. Tristram also pursued a teaching career, becoming Head of Music at St. Peter's School in Bournemouth in 1960.
In a speech given in the mid-1970s,[1] Tristram claimed to have
[...] played for 4500 services, 2300 weddings, listened (not very attentively) to 4000 sermons, and have played in the neighbourhood of 17576 hymns, and given some 400 recitals and over 100 broadcasts.
