Organ professor at The Royal Danish Academy of Music Sven-Ingvart Mikkelsen’s album Stairway to Bach – Rock classics with a hint of Bach.
In the arrangements, the connection between Bach and Rock is underlined by a direct interweaving of rock music with quotations from Johann Sebastian Bach, with the result that the music flows together in a patchwork of baroque organ, Bach and symphonic rock STAIRWAY to BACH – Rock classics with a hint of Bach.
