Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart once said that the organ was the king of all instruments. The size and complexity of this instrument, but most of all its mighty sound which can be compared to a whole orchestra, speak in favor of its attributes even today. School children will have the opportunity to hear answers to the questions such as: How does the organ “work”? When was it constructed first and who invented it? Why are there so many buttons and what is their purpose? Why are there three keyboards? Why are there so many pipes? What are these pipes made from? Other questions can be directed as well to organist Marija Družijanić and her organ students from Music School Stanković. At the end, children will get a chance to be in the role of organist and to play this majestic instrument, which will make this concert a cherished memory.
