1992 Fisk Organ at the Meyerson Symphony Center
Out of the "B"s Nest
It's all about collegiality. On our next Pipedreams program, the organ teams up with all sorts of friends including it's keyboard cousin, the piano, plus other brassy relations - the trumpet and trombone. You'll hear a little lullaby for organ and harp, a haunting fantasy for organ and electronic-tape that is amazingly effective plus a transcription of an orchestral tone poem by Franz Liszt, a spicy Baroque Concerto by Michel Corrette, and a lusty march by Alexandre Guilmant.
Think variety organ with trumpet, organ with trombone, organ with choir, or harp, or piano, or symphony orchestra, even organ with electronic tape. We're going to set aside all churchly implications and team up with many instrumental friends. Think beyond the box. Organ Plus, this week on Pipedreams.
