New harvest/Old masters

Organist Joop van Goozen, a specialist in performing on the Fokker organ since the 1990s, presents in this concert an intriguing collection of both old and new 31-tone music. Alongside the old masters of meantone tuning, such as Michelangelo Rossi and Johann Jakob Froberger, established pieces from the fixed repertoire will also be performed, including a work by Peter Schat and a previously unknown piece by Henk Badings. Flutist Jos Zwaanenburg, also known as a composer and performer on the open-holed flute, will join Joop van Goozen as a guest to perform his new composition This Tight and Spiced Up Ring of Fire Found Some Higher Ground for Fokker organ and live electronics. As an intermezzo, the exciting Equilibrium (2009) by Danny de Graan will also be featured, with the 31-tone organ and multiple speakers controlled via laptop.
