Italienische Meister um 1600

Immerse yourself in the magnificent soundscape of the early Italian Baroque! "Italian Masters around 1600", published by the renowned Doblinger Musikverlag, brings the fascinating tradition of polychoral performance vibrantly to life. Around 1600, performing on two organs enjoyed a splendid golden age, particularly in the resonant churches of Northern Italy such as Venice and Bologna.

This carefully curated collection features five exquisite works by Gioseffo Guami, Giovanni Gabrieli, Cesario Gussago, and Aurelio Bonelli. The hallmark of this edition is the captivating richness of its dialogue principle: the two instruments engage in a lively, virtuoso exchange and unite in glorious, festive harmonies. Flexibly playable on two organs or other keyboard instruments such as harpsichords or pianos, this score is an inspiring addition for concerts, liturgical services, and all lovers of historic keyboard music.
