Timothy Roberts - Joan Cabanilles: Keyboard Music, Volume 2 - 24 Works for Organ and for Harpsichord

The organ music of Joan (or Juan) Cabanilles (1644�1712) is virtuosic and colourfully Baroque, and touched with a distinctively Spanish intensity. Cabanilles is claimed as the most prolific of all composers for the organ, and publication of his works, begun in 1927, has not caught up with his output. The surviving manuscripts can be seriously corrupt, requiring extensive editing and sometimes even detailed recomposition. This recording therefore uses a number of new editions to present the music as never heard before, as close as possible to what the composer might have intended.
