The organ is known as the king of instruments for a reason. Its sound is sublime, sometimes even out of this world. All the stops will be pulled out – literally! – when the Kulturpalast’s own organist Olivier Latry joins his wife Shin-Young Lee at the keyboard. The duo will coax unforgettable sounds from the organ at the main auditorium of the Kulturpalast, which boasts 4,109 pipes and a sound to rival its visual impressiveness. The program awaiting the audience is highly intriguing, as it features works not originally written for organ, but of such polyphony and orchestral colorfulness that they unfold an effect all their own on this grand instrument. They include »Le Sacre du printemps« by Igor Stravinsky and the famous »Lever du jour« from Maurice Ravel’s »Daphnis et Chloé«.
