Howells: Organ Music -... - Adriano Falcioni - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

Herbert Howells (1892-1983) was an exponent of the so-called English musical Renaissance, a historical period between the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, which saw composers such as Ralph Vaughan Williams, Gustav Holst, Charles Villiers Stanford, engaged in charting a new path in English music.

Howells’ organ works, spanning a range of styles and moods, showcase his profound understanding of the instrument's capabilities. His compositions often intertwine rich harmonies, intricate counterpoint, and a deep sense of spirituality, reflecting both his personal experiences and the broader cultural context of his time.

This new recording presents 3 Rhapsodies, 3 Psalm-Preludes and 3 Pieces for Organ, played on the Lewis (1911) organ, Sotto il Monte Giovanni XXIII (BG), Italy.

Adriano Falcioni’s recordings for Brilliant Classics encompass many of the Romantic era’s most celebrated organ composers. Praise in Fanfare for his previous albums.
