Today’s concert within the Malta International Organ Festival sees the return of Daniel Zaretsky on organ in quite an unusual setting.

Accompanied by Reggie Clews on violin and Yaroslav Miklukho on cello, the concert is being held at Loop Bar in Valletta. The programme includes pieces by Bach, Kerll, Frescobaldi, Vivaldi and Michel.

As featured for yesterday’s concert, Zaretsky is a prize winner at the All-Russian Open Competition of Organists and the International Competition of Organists in Germany and has been head of the Faculty of Organ and Harpsichord at the St Petersburg State Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatoire since 2011. He has also been awarded the title of Honoured Artist of Russia.

■ The concert is being held at Loop Bar on Strait Street in Valletta at 8.30pm. Entrance is free. The festival runs until December 9 with concerts taking place in various cathedrals, basilicas and churches across the Maltese islands. Full program details can be obtained from www.MaltaInternationalOrganFestival.com. This space will cover the individual concerts on the day.
