Rev Robert, the vicar of Holy Trinity Church in Bengeo in Hertfordfordshire, posted the video on Facebook, asking for musicians to consider joining his church so the members don’t have to play kazoos instead.

The signs say: “There aren’t many organists around these days. So…I need your help. I need to find an organist. Before we resort to kazoos”
The congregation are then filmed all playing in the Sunday service, as Rev Robert holds a sign saying: “Yep. Not good. Help me find an organist. #Nokazoos.”
