Enrico Viccardi Storace: Complete Harpsichord & Organ Music (CD) (UK IMPORT)

Description: Further DetailsTitle: Storace: Complete Harpsichord & Organ MusicCondition: NewGenre: ClassicalCountry/Region of Manufacture: DeutschlandFormat: CDDescription: All that we know about Bernardo Storace (1637-1664) comes from the 'Selva di varie compositioni d'intavolatura per cimbalo ed organo', a remarkable collection of works compiled by the Chapel Master of the Messina Cathedral, and published in Venice in 1664 by an unknown printer. Far from being a bridge between Girolamo Frescobaldi and Bernardo Pasquini, as some have declared, Storace's style speaks for a degree of originality that should earn him a place among the great composers of keyboard music of the baroque period in Europe. This new recording contains the complete keyboard works by Bernardo Storace, consisting of Toccatas, Capriccios, Passacaglias, Partitas and Ricercares, music of bold harmonic language and instrumental brilliance. Enrico Viccardi chose four different instruments for this recording. A harpsichord built as a copy of a Grimaldi, a spinet modelled on the Venetian instruments of the second half of the 17th century, a Neapolitan positive organ by F. Cimino with all original pipes (first half of the 18th century) and the organ at the Collegiate Church of Santa Maria della Neve at Gualtieri (RE), which was built by Agostino Traeri (1784, main wind-chest) with sound parts by Giovanni Cipri (16th century), Carlo Lanzi (1670) and Andrea Montesanti (1788). Enrico Viccardi is one of Italy's foremost specialists in early keyboard music, he previously recorded the complete organ works by Tarquinio Merula for Brilliant Classics.Artist: Enrico ViccardiNo Of Discs: 2Record Label: Brilliant ClassicsEAN: 5028421954554 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
