Secular and sacred songs, anthems, motets, and instrumental pieces make up the complex program, as well as arrangements for organ by German composers.

You are guaranteed to hear hits such as “Come Again” or “Flow My Tears” by Dowland, or “Music For A While” and “If Music Be The Food Of Love” by Purcell. But also Purcell’s “Funeral Music for Queen Mary” or somewhat rarer works such as “In Guilty Night.”
