-20 minutes more, and everything would have been lost! That’s what Olivier Latry, the organist in the 850-year-old Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris, says. In this unique interview with GSOplay, he talks about the horror of seeing his workplace engulfed in flames during renovation work in April 2019.
Also listen to Olivier Latry perform his special favorite piece, which he recorded on the new concert hall organ in Gothenburg in October. The piece “Bolero” was written by his predecessor on the organ bench at Notre-Dame, Pierre Cochereau. Here, it is performed together with the percussionists Roger Carlsson and Walter Witick of the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra.
