Morandi organ music

Opis albumu:

Giovanni Morandi (1777-1856) was one of the most important organ
composers of 18-th century Italy, together with Petrali, Davide di
Bergamo and Fumagalli. He was Master of Music of the cathedral of
Senigallia, and wrote a substantial amount of (semi) liturgical works for
organ.

The formal structures of his organ works, the soaring melodies, brilliant
instrumentation, orchestral-type musical dialogues, the pianistic writing,
and the sonic and dynamic effects all reflect the vast world of Italian
opera in which Morandi was immersed.

Morandi s organ works are closely connected to the 18-th century organs
in the Veneto, notably those built by Gaetano Callido. The present
recording takes Morandis registrations into account, and applies them
both to an important Callido organ (the famous 1791 two-manual
instrument of Borca di Cadore) and a modern organ - the Lombardy-style
organ built by Amati in 1830 for the parish of Provaglio d Iseo.

Organist Marco Ruggeri made already several excellent recordings for
Brilliant Classics: Petrali organ works (BC95160) and Padre Davide
