What’s New
Jumping In at Trier Cathedral
On Tuesday, June 2nd, I have the privilege of stepping in for the indisposed Otto Krämer at the High Cathedral of Trier for an organ improvisation concert. The program will be approximately 80% solo, with the remaining 20% performed jointly—or in alternation—with the new, young Cathedral Organist, Marcel Eliasch, who will be seated at the choir organ. 8:00 PM — You are cordially invited!
Commissioned composition for the inauguration of new St. Mary´s Organ in the Cologne Cathedral
Commissioned by Cologne Cathedral Music, I had the honor of composing a piece for three organs for the dedication of the new Marian organ. The work will be premiered by the three cathedral organists, Prof. Dr. Winfried Bönig, Timotheus Chae, and Matthias Wand. What a great honor! The premiere will take place at the very beginning of this year's organ recitals in Cologne Cathedral on Tuesday, June 16, 2026, at 8:00 p.m.
