Naji Hakim / Organ Concert

Organ music without borders

The organist and composer Naji Hakim is a border-crosser who draws from both the Oriental and European musical traditions. His works are characterised by captivating rhythms, original sounds and a virtuosic joy of playing. In his concert on the Elbphilharmonie organ, Hakim presents a varied cross-section of his work.

Twice in the past few months, Naji Hakim was supposed to take his place at the organ of the Elbphilharmonie, but twice corona lockdowns interfered. So it’s poetic justice that the world-class French organist is now spontaneously stepping in for the originally planned concert by Iveta Apkalna and Herbert Schuch.

Please note: Tickets for the concert with Iveta Apkalna and Herbert Schuch retain their validity for the substitute concert with Naji Hakim.
