Discover the Wonders of the Pipe Organ
Besides the breathtaking vineyard-style seating and outstanding acoustics at the Weiwuying Concert Hall, the pipe organ, located on the top floor, is another major highlight. If you're wondering what this largest organ in Asia can do, our Explore the Pipe Organ series of events is just what you're looking for!
Program Highlights and Featured Experiences
Performances will be enhanced with other instruments, special lighting effects, and informative explanations, which will make the organ's diversity and charm more accessible and understandable to the audience. In addition, the programs boast two unique features:

- The second is the Musical Chairs aspect: members of the audience will be permitted to get up and move to other seats between pieces of music to try out different perspectives and get an idea of which seats they would like to reserve for future performances.

Programs
8/19(Wed)14:30 【Midsummer Musical Journey】 ※Close-up Show | |
As the summer sun reaches its peak, there's no better way to escape the heat than by stepping into the Weiwuying Concert Hall to enjoy the refreshing sound of the pipe organ. This time, Explore the Pipe Organ takes a lighter approach, bringing audiences closer to the stage and revealing the instrument's playful and relaxing side. The program includes the Nordic wedding music that GRIEG composed to celebrate his 25th wedding anniversary; MOZART's lively Rondo alla Turca; ANDERSON's playful The Syncopated Clock, known for its ticking rhythmic patterns; Pineapple Rag by the "King of Ragtime," Scott JOPLIN; and selections from HANDEL's Water Music. This concert also features the beloved Japanese song Nada Sōsō by the Okinawan folk-pop group BEGIN. Spanning from the Baroque period to the present day, this program presents centuries of music in an engaging and accessible way.

9/16(Wed)14:30 【Singing with the Pipe Organ】 ※Musical Chairs | |
The pipe organ, with its wide range and remarkable palette of colors, has long inspired composers to develop and transform from "core melodies". Centered on hymns, spirituals, and film themes, this program explores how the singing tradition of the Baroque period has evolved over time and across cultures, influencing composers from France, the United States, and Nigeria. Audiences will experience the grandeur of J. S. BACH's cantatas, Alan MENKEN's "The Bells of Notre Dame" from The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and organ arrangements of Ennio MORRICONE's romantic themes, including music from The Mission and The Legend of 1900. Whether drawn to ancient hymns or cherished cinematic memories, these familiar tunes will resonate through the majestic voice of the pipe organ, inviting audiences of all kinds to form a deeper connection with this instrument.

11/25(Wed)14:30 【A Dialogue: Voice, Cello, and Pipe Organ】 | |

The program features a collection of beloved works, including PURCELL's representative aria from the Baroque era, "Dido's Lament," HANDEL's timeless "Ombra mai fu," VIVALDI's radiant "Sovente il sole," and the romantic elegance of FAURÉ's Après un rêve, paired with the sacred serenity of FRANCK's Panis Angelicus. The organist will also present his adaptation of Taiwanese folk songs in various combinations: organ solo, organ and cello, organ and soprano, and a trio. Each ensemble captures the same musical beauty in its unique way.

In addition to traditional Christmas melodies, this Explore the Pipe Organ features lively and celebratory pieces from the Baroque period to modern works spanning 400 years. The collection brings everyone together to celebrate the holiday season. Whether or not the audience is familiar with church ceremonies, the hope and happiness conveyed in the Christmas songs resonate with people's hearts.
