Gallery Concert – Film Music on the Organ
Ágoston Gedai, organ - Palace Of Arts, Béla Bartók National Concert Hall
Program Info: Film music on an organ? Why not? But how will it sound? More exciting than one might imagine, after the canopy above our heads is lowered to provide the audience in the gallery with an unparalleled acoustic experience. Now, the organ will literally be placed in a new light as we find out how it is not only classical organ music that sounds so pleasant on the instrument, because familiar film music does too. Playing the organ is really only for fanatics, says Ágoston Gedai, who has served as music director of the Saint Vincent de Paul Church in Budapest for almost a decade and is also active as a music teacher. His aim at this concert is to demonstrate how well Puccini and Wagner, as well as Miklós Rózsa, Ennio Morricone and The Lord of the Rings, can all fit together into a single programme.
Miklós Rózsa - Ben-Hur – Prelude Claude Debussy - Suite bergamasque – 3rd movement (Clair de lune) Richard Wagner - Tristan und Isolde – Isolde’s Liebestod Giacomo Puccini - Turandot – ‘Nessun dorma’ (Calaf’s aria from Act 3) Howard Shore - The Lord of the Rings – excerpts James Newton Howard - The Hunger Games – The Hanging Tree Ennio Morricone - Once Upon a Time in America – Deborah’s Theme Ennio Morricone - Once Upon a Time in the West – Man with a Harmonica Hans Zimmer - Planet Earth II Suite
