New love organ: variety of sounds for Brandenburg's intercultural center!

The musical landscape is enriched in Cologne: In the intercultural center, a inauguration concert for the new love organ will take place on October 12th. This magnificent organ, equipped with two manuals, eight registers and a pedal, is not only used for services, but also for organ training courses and concerts in the heated hall of the center. Cantor Winfried Kuntz will present the instrument to the public for the first time on this special evening, and the anticipation is great. Meetingpoint Brandenburg reports that the municipality is also asking for donations to finance the installation.

As is the case in many communities, such initiatives are often dependent on the help of the population. If you want to help support, you will find the donation account at the Evangelische Bank under the IBAN DE56 5206 0103 9098 59. Interested parties are asked to indicate in the intended use "RT 3040 Organ Intercultural Center" and add your address for a donation receipt.

A look at the organ culture

organs have a special place in many cultures. In this context, there is also a trend: the foundation actively campaigns for the preservation and promotion of traditional pipe organ. According to Accordeos , over 1.3 million CHF have supported numerous projects in the past 17 years. The foundation will focus on its own projects from June 2024 and promote events that increase the preservation and publicity of organ culture.

A great example of the preservation and celebration of organ art recently took place in Engelthal. There was a historic organ, built by Johann Friedrich Macrander between 1715 and 1720, successfully renovated and re -intoned. The concert to celebrate this measure, as hung in the reports of Abtei Kloster Engelthal , attracted numerous interested parties. With an original pipe stock of over 90% in ten registers, the organic -old organ presented works from different eras and invited the audience to sing in the choral.

These events show how alive the organ culture is and how important it is to maintain such traditions. Whether in the intercultural center in Cologne or at historical concerts - the enthusiasm for organ music remains unbroken and shows that here is definitely "what on the box"!
