About «résonances»

Franz Liszt called the organ « the king of instruments».

Our impressive organ, built in 2005, is also the king of the Philharmonie. With 83 stops, four manuals and pedals, it is its own symphonic ensemble, filling the hall with its substantial power, while amazing audiences with its crystal clarity and light touch. And all the while, its unique red pipe towers watch over the hall, bringing architecture to life in music.
