HK Phil: Swire Denim Series: Vincent Dubois and the Magic of the Rieger Organ

About the show

Immerse yourself in the unparalleled world of the Hong Kong Cultural Centre's magnificent Rieger organ—sacred, versatile, and transcendent! Vincent Dubois (杜博斯), one of the four principal organists of Notre-Dame de Paris, returns to join forces with the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra (香港管弦樂團), alongside award-winning conductor Emmanuel Joel-Von Zurmühlen (伊曼紐爾．捷勒窩利安), in a programme featuring Richard Strauss's *Festival Overture* and the beloved, melody-rich Saint-Saëns Symphony No. 3, unleashing the full glory of 8,000 pipes in a breathtaking display. This "Swire Denim Series" concert sees the HK Phil and Dubois engage in a grand dialogue between organ and orchestra. Vienna-based Joel-Von Zurmühlen has also personally compiled the *Gayaneh* suite, showcasing the vibrant energy of Khachaturian's music. Whether you're an organ enthusiast, a symphony lover, or simply seeking a sensory spectacle, this performance will transport you into a magical world built from a kaleidoscope of timbres.
