Anna Lapwood Shakes the Cathedral Playing ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ on the ORGAN – Soaring with Sound, Not Wings! The Internet Is Losing It: Is This How You Resurrect Childhood Dreams… the Gothic Way?!
Move over pipe dreams — organist Anna Lapwood just turned a centuries-old cathedral into a cinematic launchpad for every millennial’s dragon-riding fantasy. In a performance that feels like magic and thunder rolled into one, Lapwood delivered an epic rendition of the How to Train Your Dragon theme on the grand cathedral organ — and the internet is absolutely freaking out.
With echoing pipes, thundering bass, and angelic flourishes soaring through Gothic arches, the piece didn’t just sound like a movie soundtrack — it felt like flight. Her hands danced like fire across the keys while the notes rose like a storm, transporting listeners from the pews straight into the clouds of Berk.
Fans are calling it “the most powerful thing ever played on an organ” and “childhood dreams, but reimagined with holy drama.” Others are joking: “Toothless heard this and took communion.”
Is this just a viral stunt? Or is Anna Lapwood single-handedly reviving interest in classical instruments for a whole new generation? Either way, she’s made one thing clear: organs aren’t just for Bach — they’re for dragons too.
