Ere Lievonen + Melle Weijters - Memorials
This packed program in Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ, commemorates composers for whom 2024 is an anniversary year and at the same time celebrates the versatility of the Fokker organ. Anton de Beer and Leo de Vries composed especially for the 31-tone organ. But the instrument can also produce a romantic sound that fits nicely with Puccini, or with Bruckner's 'Third Symphony'.
