Het ORGEL 106 (2010), nr. 1, 16-19 [summary]
The Göteborg International Organ Academy (GIOA) took place from 7-15 August. The festival distinguishes itself from other festivals by the emphatic academic element: there are not only special concerts, but there is also a lot of attention given to sharing knowledge. The theme of the 2009 GIOA was: The Organ in Culture and Context, and there were two subthemes: 1) Ten Years with the North German Baroque Organ: Improvisation and Repertoire, and 2) Pipe Organ and Jazz.
