Condolences: Ken Outram


Published on Thursday 5 February 2009 07:19

Ken Outram, who played the organ for 37 years for thousands of dancers in the City Hall ballroom, has died aged 81.

Born in Darnall in 1927, Ken was blind in one eye and with little sight in the other – and was 12 when he lost his sight altogether.

His musical talents were developed at the Royal Blind School on Manchester Road in Broomhill, becoming expert on both pipe organ and piano.
