Dresden Organ Cycle | Elegant duo: organ and flute.

About the Concert

There aren't that many organ stars, but Olivier Latry is definitely one of them! Full-time organist at Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, he is our palace organist this season and has brought another star on board for this concert. Emmanuel Pahud can perform magic on the flute! Together, they have selected French works and will place Poulenc's effective sonata for organ and flute at the heart of their program.

He also pursues an international career as a soloist and chamber musician. He is particularly interested in expanding the flute repertoire, which is why he commissions new works every year.
