Marco Lo Muscio Organ Recital at Norwich Cathedral

On Thursday 13th June 2013 I attended the Marco Lo Muscio Lunchtime Organ Recital at Norwich Cathedral which featured a varied programme of organ music. Marco Lo Muscio is a organist, pianist and composer from Rome, Italy who has given more than 700 concerts as part of organ and piano festivals at various high profile venues such as Shostakovich Great Hall and Glinka Capella in St. Petersburg, The International Music Arts Centre (Svetlanov Hall), Westminster Cathedral and the Church of the Queen of Denmark in Copenhagen.

The programme consisted of Contrapunctus I BWV 1080 (Art of the Fugue) - Bach, Jane Seymour (The Six Wives of Henry VIII) arr Lo Muscio - Rick Wakeman, Red Pedal Solo - Marco Lo Muscio, Second Chance arr Lo Muscio - Steve Hackett, Judas Iscariot arr Lo Muscio - Rick Wakeman and Concert Variations on Greensleeves dedicated to Christopher Herrick - Marco Lo Muscio.

This was a fantastic lunchtime at Norwich Cathedral as Marco Lo Muscio treated us to an interesting and lively programme of organ music. From Red Pedal Solo to Greensleeves, this was an Organ Recital to remember. These Lunchtime Organ Recitals have proved to be a great success at Norwich Cathedral this year and is a date to put in your diary each month.
