ENCOUNTERS - organ and taiko music - Mood Remote meets Wakyo for this very special live performance audio recording. *Encounters: Organ & Taiko music* in the Oude Kerk is a special benefit concert for the Vater Muller organ for 300 guests in the heart of the city of Amsterdam. Leonard Eto, Cultural Ambassador to Europe from Japan, will collaborate with contemporary musician Jacob Lekkerkerker and tap dancer Roxane Butterfly to create a performance which includes Taiko (traditional Japanese drum) and the Great Organ of the Oude Kerk. The world famous Great Organ of the Oude Kerk, was built in 1724, and still stands in it’s original home with unrivalled acoustics for more than two centuries. Through this passage of time, the condition of the mechanism and organ pipes require conservation and restoration, and support is required to ensure the longevity of this piece of musical and cultural heritage. The Oude Kerk plans to restore the great organ from 2014. A portion of this concert’s proceeds will fund the restoration of the Great Organ. https://vimeo/103696326
