Calliope Tsoupaki, appointed for the period of two years as the "Composer of the Fatherland" in the Netherlands, was deeply touched by the fire at Notre-Dame on April 15th. She immediately composed an hommage to the cathedral: Pour Notre Dame, for solo organ. Today (20th April 2019) the famous Dutch organist, Jan Hage, played the première at the Dom in Utrecht. It is the idea of Calliope that several organists will hereafter play the piece in concerts throughout the country. Calliope invites organists to take the piece on their repertoire.

This is the first performance on CCH, other organists are of course invited to share their performance, as hommage to Notre-Dame. The score is attached to this post (see below).
I was also shocked very much to see this catastrophy happening in Paris and I am pleased to contribute this piece that is dedicated "For the church and for the music that bring us all together".
