One of the most ancient instruments, the sound of which mesmerized the ancient Greeks, is the organ. Masters of European countries created famous scores for it of different ages. However, not only that – because its greatness became an inspiration for artists all over the world, and the diversity of its structure marked the traditions of certain eras and styles. One thing is important: the works for the organ were and remain suitable despite new currents and trends, giving listeners an inexpressible pleasure of spirituality and reflection on this world.
