The course is open to all! We warmly invite full-time and part-time church musicians, students, talented young organists and pupils plus fans of organ-music and organs. This is not an exclusive master class for a small circle of professional organists but an opportunity for face-to-face meetings with a Master, for informal exchange, for conversations and just getting to know each other.
The course takes place on the main organ of the Abbey church (Klais 1984 with 57 registers on three manuals). Practise organs available in the Abbey and in the neighbourhood of the Abbey.
For details of the organ, see: www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erzabtei_Beuron
Music choice for the course is unrestricted, but the emphasis will be on French Baroque, Romoanticism plus J.S. Bach and plus Works from Daniel Roth.
