Waterford International Organ Festival 2024 takes us “From the Deep Sea to Lofty Heights” and includes special concerts inspired by Hamburg and Parisian composers.
As we celebrate the significant anniversaries of Gabriel Fauré, Théodore Dubois and Matthias Weckmann, WIOF brings world famous organists to Christ Church Cathedral Waterford to perform programmes from the golden eras of organ composition.
From the ocean depths and the deep bottom “C” of the organ to the heights reached from the organ loft, there is something for everybody at WIOF 2024. With a Bach Cantata, a Handel Organ Concerto, arias and choral masterpieces and an “Underwater creatures” musical adventure for children, WIOF is truly rich in variety and colour. WIOF welcome virtuosi Prof Matthias Havinga (Amsterdam) and Eric Lebrun (Paris) as well as many distinguished artists from around Ireland.
The festival opens on Thursday 13th June and concludes on Sunday 16th June. Full details of all the events can be found on www.waterfordinternationalorganfestival.ie
