Orgelkonsert Ismo Hintsala

Tisdag 15 oktober kommer Ismo Hintsala spela en orgelkonsert med musik från hela europa under perioden 1600-1900. Konserten består av verk i passacagliaform. Typiska passacaglior har en basgång som upprepas under hela kompositionen och fungerar jättebra på orgel tack vare orgelns pedaler. Ett exempel är Led Zeppelins Dazed and Confused. Konserten inkluderar musik av Frescobaldi, Buxtehude, Bach, Franck och den finska tonsättaren John Granlund. Ismo Hintsala är universitetslektor i Uleåborg och har studerat i Helsingfors och Paris.
