Giulio Giurato – Bossi: Muische Per Pianoforte (CD)
Product Details
Marco Enrico Bossi occupies a singular place in late Romantic Italian music, celebrated in his own time as one of the great organists of Europe yet somehow stranded outside the standard repertoire ever since. Giurato has spent years methodically reclaiming this composer's instrumental legacy, and this solo piano survey completes a portrait that no single performer had previously attempted to draw in full.
Marco Enrico Bossi piano music accompanies almost his entire creative life: from his first mazurka, composed at age 14, to the five concert pieces of Op. 137, the piano represents almost a moment of compositional relaxation compared to the organ, chamber music, and large symphonic-choral works, albeit with the inevitable challenges connected to the evolution of his style. Giulio Giurato, already pianist interpreter of the complete recording of Bossi's instrumental chamber music (Tactus, TC862704/05/06/07 - TC860204), now dedicates himself as a soloist to this world premiere recording of the piano works by the great Italian composer. Works that are still virtually unknown today, revealing how much ground still needs to be covered in order to arrive at a complete assessment of the composer's mastery.
