Organ concert in Vitebsk to feature works by Bach

VITEBSK, 18 January (BelTA) – Honored Artist of Russia Lyudmila Golub will present an organ concert at the Vitebsk Oblast Philharmonic Hall on 21 January, BelTA learnt from the cultural establishment.

The concert “Bach in Leipzig” will include works of the renowned composer wrote by him in this German city over his last 27 years of life. Lyudmila Golub is an organist of the world level. She gives concerts in Russia, Germany, France, the UK, the Netherlands, Spain, Finland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland and the United States. She played in such well-known temples as Saint Paul Cathedral in London, Saint Mary Magdalene Cathedral in Paris and Notre-Dame de Paris.

“Our guests will be able to enjoy a true paragon of wonderful polyphony. Organ was Bach’s favorite music instrument. He knew it better than anyone. Only this instrument could materialize his creative ideas when the symphony orchestra was absent,” said Tatyana Savitskaya, musicologist of the Vitebsk Oblast Philharmonic Hall.
