Organ Concerts in the City Hall

Description

Organ concerts in the City Hall? Yes, you read that right. This is made possible by Christian Schmitt's portable organ. Christian Schmitt enjoys playing works from the 20th and 21st centuries on it and interprets them as charismatically and virtuously as older organ literature. After the concerts with orchestral accompaniment, Christian Schmitt will present his portable organ in more detail with solo works and in conversation. A unique and first-time concert experience!
