Lorenzo Ghielmi; Ensemble Bisantores - A Late Medieval Mass On The Rysum Organ

In the German village of Rysum, in East Frisia, a precious instrument is preserved: an ancient organ, built in 1442/1513, which still has most of the original pipes.Lorenzo Ghielmi and the vocal ensemble Biscantores presents a sort of organ Mass, where organ pieces and liturgical chant alternate according to the practice of the time.A journey between the late Middle Ages and the dawn of the Renaissance � this is how you could describe the musical programme of this CD, set up in collaboration with the musicologist Konrad K�ster, which perfectly illustrates the unique sounds of this instrument.
