Almost nine years ago to the day, the Elbphilharmonie organ was heard for the first time in a solo concert. Since then, titular organist Iveta Apkalna, who was of course at the console at the time, has been presenting more and more organ repertoire with exciting programmes – this time including minimal music by Philip Glass and music by organ favourites Johann Sebastian Bach, Franz Liszt and Pēteris Vasks.
