Choosing the organ literature we have been (among other things) inspired by the following jubilees:
- 300 years ago Bach arrived in Weimar (1708 - 1717 Bach has been "Hoforganist" at the ducal court in Weimar)
- 150th anniversary of Julius Reubke’s death (1824 - 1858) -
The Organ Sonata
Der 94. Psalm had its world premiere in Merseburg Cathedral - 100th anniversary of Olivier Messiaen’s birth (1908 - 1992)
That means that these Bach and Reubke jubilees are both directly related to the places of this competition.
