Organ concert
After making a lasting impression at the 2023 edition of the Spring Arts Festival, Thomas Ospital has been invited back for what promises to be an unforgettable recital: a line-up of legendary organists, from Johann Sebastian Bach to Olivier Messiaen and Franz Liszt, which Ospital merges with Volumina as György Ligeti moves away from tradition, revolutionising the instrument.
