Hansa Organ Project: Competition for composers

The project is a cooperation of partners from several Hanseatic cities under the leadership of St. Mary's Cathedral in Visby. The aim is to publish an organ book with new compositions relating to the Hanseatic League and to establish an organ festival.

Until 1 June 2024, composers are invited to submit organ compositions in two different categories. The 15-20 winners will be selected by a jury and the pieces will be presented in a Hansa Organ Book, which will be presented at the Hanseatic Day in Visby.

The compositions will be performed for the first time as part of an organ festival at the International Hanseatic Day in Visby from 5-8 June 2025.
