Vierne Concert Series
The six organ symphonies of Louis Vierne form one of the great monuments not just of organ literature but of symphonic form generally. How lucky we are here in Dublin to have the ideal combination of elements to present these symphonies: David Leigh (Pipeworks associate artist), who is one of the few organists internationally able to take on the Herculean task of presenting them entire in a single recital series; the heroic Willis organ of St Patrick’s Cathedral; and of course the great Gothic church which houses it. The series promises something for everyone, from neo-Gothic fantasists to lovers of fin de siècle opulence.
The concerts take place on Wednesday evenings at 6.30pm in St Patrick’s Cathedral, on 26th May, 9th and 23rd June, and 7th July. We are presenting the series in association with the cathedral, whose support and enthusiasm has made the whole project possible. Please do try and get to all four concerts – this a once in a lifetime opportunity to hear all six symphonies in a single series.
Tickets: €12 / €8 (Concession) Available at the door or from the pipeworks office: adminpipeworks@gmail.com
