Classical concert
Fürobe ir Stadtchile - Einweihungskonzert der sanierten Orgel
Evang.-ref. Stadtkirche Solothurn
Westringstrasse 14, 4500 Solothurn
Inauguration of the renovated organ: an evening full of new sounds, contemporary music and exciting insights into the organ playing of Nadia Bacchetta. Bistro open from 6.30 pm.
With the new year, the popular "Fürobe" format returns to the Stadtkirche Solothurn and opens the season with a special event: the ceremonial inauguration of the newly renovated organ.
On this evening, Nadia Bacchetta will demonstrate the instrument's tonal possibilities in all their diversity. A screen projection makes the playing of the keys and pedal visible at close range and provides an exciting insight into organ playing.
The concert unfolds a wide musical arc between cosmic expanse and meditative calm. The program includes works by contemporary composers such as Kristina Arakelyan (A Star Fantasy), Olivia Belli (Grain Moon) and Ludovico Einaudi, which allow the organ to appear in unusual colors. The program is complemented by the ever-growing tension and power of Maurice Ravel's Boléro and the virtuosity of Maurice Duruflé's Prélude et Fugue sur le nom d'Alain. An evening that focuses on light, vision and sonic transformation.
From 18:30, the cozy Chilebistro invites you to arrive and linger with a buffet of regional snacks. A sweet surprise awaits the audience at the end.
Nadia Bacchetta completed her training at the Bern University of the Arts, where she received a teaching diploma with distinction and a concert diploma with a focus on contemporary music. A formative Erasmus stay led her to Hans-Ola Ericsson in Sweden and deepened her exploration of modern tonal languages and extended playing techniques.
In 2025, she was awarded the Solothurn Consortium Prize for Music.
Since 2022 she has been organist at the Reformed City Church of Solothurn. There she plays the historic Kuhn organ from 1925, one of the few late-romantic symphonic organs in Switzerland. In addition to her church music work, she creates a variety of concert programs, works with choirs and ensembles and is dedicated to teaching innovative approaches to organ music.
