Ekaterina Melnikova Organ Music Programme. Kaliningrad, Koeningsberg Cathedral, January 16th, 2021
This winter night makes all colours shine wonderfully. Ice crystals are glinting and stars are twinkling. Organ music sounds so unusual, it’s just like magic.
Scintillating snowflakes inspire Bach to compose a fugue. What about Beethoven? All is possible in a dream. A tango, perhaps, why not…
Christmas carols are still heard but it is time to turn the page. Another year awaits. We get on our way, with Federico Fellini’s vagabond actors and Nino Rota’s music.
A soft ancient prayer and tender chimes of little bells are heard in the night’s air.
Snow and breeze whirl freely over the city.
