Product Description
Mottetto a 5 voci con accompagnamento d'organo di J.P.Sweelinck, compositore olandese a cavallo tra '5 e '600.
Sweelinck visse quasi tutta la sua vita ad Amsterdam, nella cui Oude Kerk fu organista per ben 44 anni, dall'età di soli 15 anni (organista della stessa chiesa e suo maestro era stato il padre). Aveva però studiato a Venezia con Zarlino e forse conosciuto di persona i contemporanei compositori inglesi Byrd, Dowland e Bull; il suo stile di toccata e fuga per organo sarebbe stato di eccezionale importanza per Bach.
A motet for 5 voices and organ by J.P.Sweelinck, Zarlino's pupil in Venice, who was for 44 years organist in the Oude Kerk in Amsterdam (after his father had also been). His music is very near to the music by the English composers Byrd, Dowland and Bull, whom he might have known personally, and deeply influenced J.S.Bach's style.
