•Wed, 9 Sept 2026, 22:45–22:55

With Olivier Messiaen’s Apparition de l'Église éternelle, cathedral organist Gerhard Raab brings a monumental masterpiece of modern organ music to the acoustic space of the St. Mary’s Cathedral. Literally translating to the ”Apparition of the Eternal Church”, the piece builds over a relentlessly pulsating bass ostinato into a massive, architectural wave of sound—an immersive experience that unleashes the full physical power of the cathedral organ.
