Göteborgs Konserthus Tones of Reconciliation

Event has already taken place

Let the notes from the mighty concert hall organ accompany you on an inner journey. American organist Kimberly Marshall is our guide in a meditative lunch concert in the sign of reconciliation. A soulful new year for music. 

Treat yourself to a day to refrain from distractions and duties. At this time of year occurs the Day of Atonement in Judaism, Yom Kippur, the day when we look inward and consider how we treat ourselves and each other. Tradition says that Yom Kippur is celebrated for one day as a holy conversation. At sunset, only you know where your choices will take you. 

At the organ concert Tones of reconciliation you get a meditative musical experience, regardless of who is asking the questions. The music that vibrates from the 9 000 pipes of the Great Hall organ ranges from contemplative prayer to explosive emotional cascades. 

Sitting at the organ is American organist Kimberly Marshall, celebrated internationally for her captivating concerts and a valued lecturer in the organ world. Kimblerly Marshall has visited Gothenburg several times and among other things she has made recordings with the North German Baroque organ in Örgryte Nya kyrka.

More than 9000 organ pipes

The organ is called “the queen of instruments” and for a good reason: no other acoustic instrument is so varied in sound and dynamics, from the weakest, solitary tone to massive chords that make it vibrate in floors and walls.
