Zum Programm

The guest in the 21st composer portrait is Jean-Pierre Leguay, the sound colour magician from Paris. He studied with Olivier Messiaen and writes his works in braille as he was born blind. He discusses his works in conversation with the new music expert Martina Seeber. Interpretations of his chamber music invite the listener to discover a fascinating oeuvre. The French grand seigneur of the organ even performs one of his famous improvisations. Even those who expect the unexpected will be surprised.
