Iveta Apkalna, organ

Iveta Apkalna pursues milestones in organ music: Johann Sebastian Bach’s enormous Chaconne, César Franck’s ground-breaking »Prélude, fugue et variation« or Camille Saint-Saëns’ »Danse macabre« which exploits the symphonic sound possibilities of the organ. The titular organist of the Elbphilharmonie complements her solo programme with further pieces, which also showcase »her« instrument in full splendour.
