David Adams (right), winner of the 1986 Dublin International Organ Competition, is turning up right across the musical spectrum, as a member of the Crash Ensemble, conducting for Opera Theatre Company, as a soloist with the Irish Chamber Orchestra, playing piano and harpsichord at the West Cork Chamber Music Festival, and as a sympathetic exponent of the organ music of the 19th century. His recital at St Michael's, Dun Laoghaire, tomorrow, will bring the Bach that's to be expected from organists in this commemorative year, but also Liszt (the Fantasia and Fugue on BACH), a Partita on Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme by the little-known, early 20th-century German composer, Hugo Distler, plus Raymond Deane's Apostille and a new work by Donnacha Dennehy.
