For all those who love the Duomo and the unmistakable timbre of its extraordinary Organ, after last year’s success, the “Organ Sonorities in the Duomo” event returns to the Cathedral.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The organ, in fact, is the voice of the Duomo.<\/strong><\/p>\n

For centuries, its sonorities have filled the Cathedral’s high naves. From the very beginning of its construction, the sound of the organ has accompanied the life of the Duomo: witness to the preciousness of this history is the current instrument, composed of over 15,800 pipes, the largest in Italy and among the first in the world.<\/p>\n

For the Advent and Christmas Season, starting on December 9th, every Saturday, from 4:45pm to 5:15pm<\/strong>, before the vigil Eucharistic celebration,\u00a0all visitors and worshippers of the Milan Duomo will have the opportunity to listen to the majestic sound of the Cathedral Organ.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cOrgan Sonorities in the Duomo\u201d dedicates the month of December to the typical Christmas repertoire. Songs on the best-known melodies of the Christmas season will be the setting for the performance of a selection from the cycle\u00a0La Nativit\u00e9 du Seigneur<\/em>\u00a0by Olivier Messiaen, a cornerstone of organ literature from the first half of the 20th century.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The melodies of the Organ, entrusted to the hands of Maestro Alessandro La Ciacera, will thus merge with the architectural harmonies of the Cathedral, creating a true musical accompaniment to the visit, in an atmosphere of profound suggestion.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The review will continue throughout the month of January.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The programmes of the various appointments of ‘Organ Sonorities in the Duomo\u201d will be published on the website\u00a0<\/strong>www.duomomilano.it<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0as the events approach.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It begins on 9th December at 4.45pm with\u00a0Amazing grace<\/em>, a famous English Christian hymn, in the arrangement by Diane Bish (1941),\u00a0Les Bergers and Les Anges<\/em>\u00a0from\u00a0La Nativit\u00e9 du Seigneur<\/em>\u00a0by Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992) and\u00a0No\u00ebl ‘Votre bont\u00e9, Grand Dieu’<\/em>\u00a0by Claude Balbastre (1724-1799).<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For the occasion, the review will be broadcast live streaming on the Duomo di Milano YouTube channel\u00a0<\/strong>Duomo Milano Tv<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0(also accessible from the official website\u00a0<\/strong>www.duomomilano.it<\/strong><\/a>).<\/strong><\/p>\n

An opportunity to discover the complexity of this magnificent instrument, protagonist of a mighty restoration work carried out by the Veneranda Fabbrica, started in 2019, which is still ongoing and will not affect the listening of \u201cOrgan Sonorities in the Duomo\u201d.<\/p>\n

An intervention made possible thanks to the fundamental support of Intesa Sanpaolo as main sponsor, the donors of the 5×1000 to the Veneranda Fabbrica and the fundraising campaign 15,800 notes for the Duomo, as well as the contribution of the Municipality of Milan for the Christmas Market in Piazza del Duomo, Fondazione Bracco and Zucchetti<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201cOrgan Sonorities in the Duomo\u201d will not be held on Saturday 6th January 2024, Epiphany of the Lord: at 4.30pm, in the Cathedral, there will in fact be a solemn festive celebration of Vespers, presided over by the Archbishop of Milan Monsignor Mario Delpini, with the Rite of\u00a0Omnes Patriarch\u00e6<\/em>\u00a0and the presence of the Duomo Musical Chapel.<\/p>\n
