After a successful period as an interpreter of classical organ music, Katta decided to start writing her own music for the instrument. Her 2016 album Veni Sancte Spiritus, which combined her own compositions with works by Bach, Messiaen, and Pärt, opened up new ways for her to express herself in music.
Her first all-original album,Vox Organi, was released this year in May. All the sounds on the album come from the organ at Salvátor church – with the exception of her vocals when she sings old spiritual texts.
The evening will be opened by the duo Trans Organic, featuring internationally-acclaimed organist Markéta Schley Reindlová and multi-instrumentalist Tomáš Reindl. The two combine traditional organ sounds with interactive electronica, Indian tabla drums, and other instruments.
,The vibrating sonic field Katta crates is a physical experience: it fills the space, and shakes both it and the body of the listener.' Host
