Notre-Dame’s Great Organ Awakens Amidst Reopening Celebrations
As Notre-Dame prepares for its reopening on December 7, Olivier Latry, the cathedral’s long-time organist, reflects on the restoration of the great organ. After five years of silence following the devastating fire, the organ has been meticulously restored and harmonized. Latry expresses excitement and emotion for the moment he plays the organ during the opening ceremony, marking a significant return of music to the iconic cathedral. The organ’s sound remains unchanged, but the acoustics have subtly transformed, promising a unique experience for future visitors.
