Summary
Organist Ian Tracey plays seasonal works by Bach, Brahms and Tchaikovsky, alongside Hérold’s Clog Dance, at Liverpool Philharmonic Hall.
Why it's fantastic
Hear the resident organist put this massive instrument through its paces during an hour of festive favorites. You will recognise the famous Clog Dance and The Nutcracker melodies, but the real highlight is hearing the floorboards shake as the pipes roar through the final, high-energy Sleigh Ride.
