Organ improvisation "Beowulf"

By Vidas Pinkevicius (get free updates of new posts here)

Do you remember the story about Beowulf?

This is the medieval Anglo-Saxon heroic poem about the ancient geatic hero Beowulf who helped danes fight the monster Grendel and his mother, later became king and after fifty years defeated the dragon but died of mortal wounds?

Last Saturday I improvised a recital based on this story at Vilnius University St. John's church.

Here's how it started.

​Enjoy!
