CHURER DOMORGELSOMMER 2026 - Orgelkonzert mit Björn Steinar Sólbergsson (Island)
Overview
Intro
Icelandic organist Björn Steinar Sólbergsson (Hallgrímskirkja, Reykjavík) will perform French organ music as well as fascinating works by Icelandic composers.
Fire and Ice – Organ Music from France and Iceland
The Chur Cathedral Organ Summer opens with an extraordinary guest from Iceland.
Björn Steinar Sólbergsson, organist at the world-famous Hallgrímskirkja in Reykjavík, combines French organ music by Louis Vierne with works by Icelandic composers in his program. The concert bridges a fascinating gap between the tonal richness of late French Romanticism and the distinctive musical language of the North.
A musical evening full of contrasts—powerful, atmospheric, and impressive.
