Like a rock star, organist Cameron Carpenter is shaking up the music world: ‘Everything he touches becomes fantastic and unforgettable,’ wrote the New York Times. In this concert, he combines the famous Organ Symphony by Camille Saint-Saëns with Samy Moussa’s A Globe Itself Infolding: the organ symphony of the 21st century. The centerpiece of the program is Heather Pinkham’s Nowhere and No-When, a concert that enters into a dialogue with the universe. Orchestra and pianist convert starlight into sound and send coded messages to extraterrestrial worlds. The soloist is Ralph van Raat, pianist of ‘sensational lucidity’, according to de Volkskrant.
