In P\u00e4rt\u2019s oeuvre the organ serves mainly as an accompanying instrument for vocal music, but in the 1980s he also composed a series of works for solo organ. Laurens de Man (1993), who has been chief organist of the Janskerk in Utrecht since 2012, excels in works such as Trivium and Annum per annum. And De Man is also joined by two special guests. Countertenor Maarten Engeltjes, this season\u2019s \u201cKindred Spirit\u201d of the Muziekgebouw, will appear to sing the marvellous song My Heart\u2019s in the Highlands. P\u00e4rt adapted the original by the Scottish poet Robert Burns from 1789 into an inspired song for countertenor and organ. The intoxicatingly beautiful Spiegel im Spiegel will be heard in an arrangement for violin and organ, with De Man performing together with violinist Tai Murray, who the evening before will also perform the work in its original version with Ralph van Raat. De Man plays the extraordinary Fokker organ in the Kleine Zaal, which has a 31-tone tuning that makes it possible to play in meantone tuning.
