The love of music knows no epidemic borders and connects musicians from the most distant regions and the most diverse ways of life with each other. Thus “Nah und fern” is inspired by the rhythmic virtuoso auditory impressions of the West African kora harp, combined with harmonically complex European sound culture. Transferred to the organ and connected to its sonorous cosmos, this work spans a narrative arc around the world, uniting opposites and giving vital expression to the hope for harmonious peace.
