Brian Parks performs at the 1,000th anniversary of the Basilica of the Holy Apostles in Köln, Germany, September 2021. Those of us at Quadratum appreciate the organ’s enshrinement as a facilitator of sacred musics. We also explore the organ as an independent instrument capable of sonifying other compositional and soundscape efforts.
