Jonathan & Tom Scott present a concert
in Bergamo Cathedral.
"Finally, on October 29, we will
re-propose in the Cathedral what
last year was forcibly cancelled and replaced
at the last minute.
We refer to the winning project of the
2nd ‘Children Project
Competition’ 2019, organized by the
ECHO Association
(European Cities of Historical Organ)
where our artistic direction
is part of the jury. The winner is a new
organ transcription of
Modest Musorgskij’s ‘Pictures
from an Exhibition’, illustrated
through a large-screen video animation
specially designed for
children. Authors are the Scott Brothers
Duo: Jonathan,
phenomenal organist and transcriber who
grew up in the great
English tradition of the Organ-Hall, and
his brother Tom, pianist,
who on this occasion will be the director
of the show. The recital,
in the first part, includes the famous
‘Four Seasons’ by Antonio
Vivaldi transcription with which we want
to celebrate the 1600th
anniversary of the foundation of Venice,
whom empire included
for more than three centuries the fortified
city of Bergamo."
