Brass of the Berlin Philharmonic
with Paul Jacobs, organ

Performance
 

Members of the Berlin Philharmonic brass section join with celebrated American organist Paul Jacobs and other special guests for a Hill Auditorium concert that showcases the brilliant sounds of virtuosic brass blending with the mighty organ.

The Hill Auditorium organ, named for former U-M president (and UMS founder) Henry Simmons Frieze, was unveiled at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exhibition in Chicago and subsequently purchased by the University following a public fundraising campaign.

The program will include a rich mix of Baroque, classical, and modern works for various combinations of brass and organ, including Kabelác’s Symphony No. 3 for Brass and Organ and works by composers such as Giovanni Gabrieli, Richard Strauss, George Gershwin, George Delerue, and more.

Complete program details to be announced.
