On Sunday, 20 September 2026 at 16:00, organist Julian Mallek presents the concert "Forbarm dig over mig" at Sct. Marie Church - as part of the Organ Festival in Sønderborg and the surrounding region.

The programme is built around the chorale "Erbarm dich mein, o Herre Gott" and moves from chorale preludes to North German prelude tradition. Julian Mallek plays on both the church's large and small organs.

• J.S. Bach: Erbarm dich mein, o Herre Gott BWV 721 (manualiter)

About the venue: Sct. Marie Kirke, Sønderborg

Sct. Marie Kirke stands on Kirketorvet in the centre of Sønderborg and, with its elevated position near Alssund, serves as one of the city's landmarks. The church was consecrated in 1600, replacing the older Sct. Jørgens Kirke, while the tower was added in 1883. The interior reflects Duke Hans the Younger's taste for the Renaissance style - the pulpit (1599) and altarpiece (1618) were both carved by Niels Tagesen of Sønderborg. The church also hosts concerts, including the opening event of the Orgelfestival in Sønderborg og omegn.
