In April 2019, the brass ensemble phil Blech Wien joined forces with organist Olivier Latry, creating a new, unique body of sound under the baton of Anton Mittermayr. The concept for this extraordinary listening experience took more than a year’s worth of work: the declared aim was not the usual juxtaposition, but the merging of the two sound worlds, realized through the arrangements of trombonist Mark Gaal. After a hugely successful first performance in the sold-out Kulturpalast Dresden with its new Eule organ, the concert was repeated and recorded a week later in the Great Hall of the Musikverein in Vienna.
