Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall
Although we tend to assign the title “king of instruments” to the piano, that honour could more fittingly be awarded to the magnificent church organ, which is being honoured in tonight’s concert! The programme begins with one of Bach’s magnificent organ work transcribed for orchestra by Dimitris Mitropoulos. Next up, the outstanding organist Thierry Escaich joins forces with the Athens State Orchestra to perform two celebrated symphonic works in which the organ plays a lead role.
