About

In April 2019, phil Blech Wien, conducted by Anton Mittermayr, collaborated with organist Olivier Latry in a programme centred on the fusion of brass ensemble and organ. Rather than presenting both forces in contrast, the concept aimed at blending their sound worlds through the arrangements of Mark Gaal.

Following an initial performance at the Kulturpalast Dresden, the programme was recorded in the Great Hall of the Musikverein in Vienna. Olivier Latry performed on the Rieger organ, joined by the musicians of phil Blech Wien, creating a powerful and richly layered sound that bridges baroque repertoire and symphonic dimension.
