Celebrity Organ Recital: Olivier Latry
Part of the Three Choirs Festival 2018
Add to my Calendar 31-07-2018 11:00 31-07-2018 13:00 36 Celebrity Organ Recital: Olivier Latry Olivier Latry is a virtuoso of the highest order, so it is perhaps no surprise that he holds the office of titulaires des grands orgues at France’s most iconic cathedral. Latry is famous for championing the music of his compatriots in performances around the world, and today’s recital is no exception. The programme is dominated by French composers loved for the colour and expression in their music, and this recital is sure to explore the full range of the Hereford Cathedral organ’s possibilities.
