Organist David Schollmeyer combines Baroque splendour with the glittering world of Hollywood. This musical juxtaposition of two eras brings out the dazzling richness of the Europa organ at the Auferstehungskirche.
Johann Sebastian Bach’s famous Toccata in D minor, alongside profound organ works and festive cantata movements, form the elegant, classical foundation of the programme. This Baroque masterpiece is juxtaposed with John Williams’s globally acclaimed film scores. In tailor-made, striking arrangements for the grand organ, these world-famous themes shine with a new, spectacular brilliance: from the expansive, galactic sounds of *Star Wars* and *Superman* to the magical motifs from *Harry Potter* and *E.T.*.
