2025's IMAD Event Introduces the Felt-Padded Piano
In 2025, music enthusiasts will have the opportunity to witness a remarkable event as the IMAD Festival commemorates the 275th anniversary of Johann Sebastian Bach's death. This year's festival, organised by Paderborner Dommusik, promises to be a special occasion, with a unique presentation of Bach's work that will offer new listening experiences.
The highlight of the IMAD 2025 Festival will be a performance on the historic Meyer organ, a lesser-known gem in Paderborn. This organ, built in 1887/88, will be the stage for Domorganist Tobias Aehlig's rendition of Bach's compositions. Interestingly, in Bach's time, "clavier" referred to all keyboard instruments, not just the piano forte.
Tobias Aehlig will perform on the Meyer organ not in Paderborn, but at the Freiburg Münster (Cathedral) in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany. While specific details about the program and the particular Bach works presented at IMAD 2025 were not found, the use of the historic Meyer organ and the participation of Domorganist Tobias Aehlig are the distinctive elements of this presentation.
One of Bach's most famous works will be included in the IMAD Festival program, but the exact composition has yet to be disclosed. The performance on the Meyer organ is expected to be a special highlight of IMAD 2025, and advance booking is now open through the festival's website.
For those who wish to learn more about the IMAD Festival, the festival's website is accessible in a new tab. The website also serves as a platform for advance bookings and contact information for the IMAD 2025 Advance Booking Office.
As the countdown to IMAD 2025 begins, music lovers are eagerly anticipating this unique celebration of Bach's work on the historic Meyer organ. Get ready to experience Bach like never before!
