TONIGHT!!! ONLINE ORGAN CONCERT "NEW WORLD SYMPHONY" BILLERBECK DOM - SATURDAY 29TH June 2024 7PM (UK TIME) Watch here: https://youtu.be/6d05A6bWtZE
We invite you to watch the World Online Premiere of Jonathan's performance of his new arrangement of the complete Dvorak "New World Symphony" (Symphony No. 9 in E minor Op. 95 "From the New World") on the incredible Pipe Organs of Billerbeck Dom (Ludger's Cathedral), Germany. An EPIC piece of music needs an EPIC pipe organ, and this organ is amazing - it has so many wonderful features, from amazing solo voices, huge Trumpets & Tubas, and a full Carillon which is situated in the 100 metre tall bell tower (playable from the organ!!!). This is an online pipe organ event which we can't wait to share with you! We hope you enjoy it, Jonathan & Tom
Happy Birthday Tom! Hopefully we will celebrate with a chocolate train cake, just like when he was four (and wear matching outfits)!!!
Prepare yourself for our EPIC pipe organ VLOG (with BELLS ON)! Watch here: https://youtu.be/yJnj7hl6ovQ
In our latest adventure, we start at the historic Middleton Parish Church for a 500 years celebration! We then travel to Germany, first to Bayreuth to perform Piano & Organ Duos at the Stadtkirche, where visit some very famous composers, and then we take a trip to Billerbeck where Tom climbs the incredible Cathedral Towers! After an animation concert in St George's, Jesmond, we travel to St Mary's Saffron Walden!
Can you guess the tune? How do you use a continental pillow? (let us know) How do you play a bell tower? What is the Mystery of St Ludger?
We hope you enjoy watching! Jonathan & Tom
