Organ concert at the St Stephan Basilica

We were checking in with the concierge who suggested an organ concert at st. Stephen's Basilica. We got to get to know the people around us and then went into the cavernous interior. After so many cathedrals and Abbey's on this trip, this one still stood out! The concert was exceptional. We had the organ player flute player and a tenor all contributing to the concert. The finale was Toccoa in Fugue in D minor by Johann Sebastian Bach.
