Eventually, curiosity nudges me to step into the church to watch him perform before our conversation begins. Seated at the organ bench, his fingers dance effortlessly across the keys as though the instrument is an extension of his very being. Luggya is completely absorbed in his work.
During the climax of the second wedding of the day, he briefly closes his eyes before lifting his hands and feet off the organ. Another organist steps in to continue, allowing him to join me for our interview.
In his role, Luggya leads a team of organists who enrich daily services, special ceremonies, and events at the cathedral. Clad in simple black trousers and a checked shirt with the sleeves rolled up, Luggya’s demeanour exudes quiet authority. As we exit the cathedral, his handshake is firm, his smile genuine, and his voice carries the calm assurance of a man who has spent years mastering his craft.
