Salvatore: Organ-alternatim Masses
Label: BRILLIANT Catalog: BRI95146 Format: CD DEL SORDO NOVA SCHOLA GREGORIANA IN DULCI JUBILO TURCODuring the 17th century, the Roman Catholic Church accepted instrumental interludes during mass as an addition or as a replacement of other parts of the mass. This practice inspired composers of that era, who wrote elaborate organ works to show their compositional skills.; Giovanni Salvatore (1620-1688) was one such composer, whose works are featured here. Salvatore worked as an organist in Naples.; With a compositional style reminiscent of the Neapolitan Baroque liturgy, Salvatore’s works feature rich vocals and instrumental polyphony.; Performing these works is organist Federico Del Sordo and the Nova Schola Gregoriana, conducted by Alberto Turco.
