An organ evening with Vladimir Khomyakov is a dialogue of eras and styles, where the classics of Johann Sebastian Bach meet jazz improvisation. The unique performer turns the concert into a living experiment, where the organ reveals itself from unexpected sides and sounds bright, fresh, and emotional. The subscription "Organ Without Borders" at the Concert Hall of the St. Petersburg Cappella opens with a program that unites classical music and improvisation. The evening titled "From Bach to Jazz" features People's Artist of Russia Vladimir Khomyakov - one of the few organists in the country whose performing style goes beyond academic rigor. Khomyakov is not just a virtuoso of organ playing - he is an experimenter who is not afraid to combine time-tested classics with original improvisations. His performances are always a dialogue with the instrument, a space for spontaneous musical decisions and unexpected sound discoveries. The program of the evening is built on contrasts. The solemn and profound works of Johann Sebastian Bach create a foundation, from which the organist embarks on his own musical worlds. The compositions of Louis Vierne add French expressiveness and color. The arrangement of "Night on Bald Mountain" by Modest Mussorgsky acquires new drama and scope in the organ interpretation, while Khomyakov's original improvisations conclude the program on a modern note, rich in rhythm and freedom. A special role in this concert is played by the "Walker" organ - an instrument with a bright personality and outstanding acoustic characteristics. Its massive sound creates an almost cinematic effect and allows for the full potential of the works to be revealed. Find other events in St. Petersburg on KudaGo.
