Color sound in Düsseldorf: When modern jazz meets the Schöler organ
On Wednesday, October 21, 2026, the 21st IDO Festival transforms the Evangelical Church in Urdenbach into an extraordinary sound space. At color sound – Modern Jazz meets Organ, colorful jazz, improvised soundscapes, and the historic Schöler organ come together in an evening of musical surprises.
Sound colors between jazz and church organ
The name says it all: color sound stands for modern jazz with multifaceted sound colors, surprising twists, and open musical spaces. Composed themes meet free improvisations, fine lines grow into powerful soundscapes. The organ does not serve merely as accompaniment but becomes an equal member of the ensemble.
A versatile ensemble in dialogue
Ludwig Hegge, Norbert Hambloch, Achim Fink, Lucas Schmid, Udo Hasenbein, Boris Becker, and Nick Goudkuil create a thrilling artist line-up. Multifaceted brass sections, guitar, bass, drums, and the characterful pipe organ combine to form an open, lively sound image. The festival organization thus focuses on a concert format that brings jazz tradition and sacred space into conversation.
The Evangelical Church in Urdenbach as a sound space
In the Evangelical Church of Urdenbach, the Schöler organ with two manuals and 23 registers resonates. Its historically shaped organ sound enriches the modern jazz ensemble with resonant colors, long reverberation spaces, and surprising accents. This creates a special concert atmosphere between focused listening, rhythmic energy, and spontaneous improvisation.
Part of the 21st IDO Festival
The concert is part of the diverse 21st IDO Festival, which presents the organ in various musical contexts. In addition to classical concert formats, jazz, modern music, cross-productions, and family events are also part of the festival program. Color sound impressively shows how flexible and contemporary the organ can sound in today's festival culture.
Conclusion: An evening concert for curious ears
Visitors can expect an intense musical experience between groove, sound architecture, and improvisational freedom. Those who want to experience modern jazz, extraordinary concert venues, and the fascinating sound world of a church organ should discover color sound live in Düsseldorf-Urdenbach.
