A release of great importance: the first time CD-issue of the Complete Works of Girolamo Frescobaldi.
The importance of Frescobaldi cannot be overrated: the Italian Renaissance master influenced a whole generation after him in the development of instrumental composition: his magnificent keyboard works are rich, virtuosic and grand in form, and have served as model for many composers after him (Froberger, J.S. Bach, Purcell, to name a few).
The CD’s in this edition are all newly recorded, by the foremost scholar/musicians of Italy, using period instruments.
Another spectacular “Integrale” by Brilliant Classics, a worthy successor of Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, Rachmaninoff, Corelli....
Free CD-ROM included containing linernotes written by leading musicologists, and the complete texts of the vocal music.
