About this product

Luigi Picchi learned the rudiments of music from his father Faustino; a self-taught organist; and later studied with the Pavia-based teachers Giovanni Baroni and Franco Vittadini in preparation for admission to the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory in Milan in 1909. The first phase of his musical activity saw him engaged in the concert and operatic life of the province as well as composing instrumental and vocal works; a Requiem Mass (1922) and musical accompaniments for the Passione di Cristo (1925) to a text by Don Ennio Bernasconi. In Como; Picchi's true vocation; for sacred music; was able to be realized as a boy he had had the opportunity to play for liturgical services on the Sairano organ and; as a young student at the Conservatory; he had continued this activity in villages in the surroundings of Milan. He also composed pieces for organ which were featured in L'Organista italiano (1922-26) and I Maestri dell'Organo (1931); journals issued by the Carrara music publishing house of Bergamo; whose founder Vittorio Carrara was astute enough to sense and appreciate Picchi's talents his artistic substance as well as the playability of his music and it's suitability for the liturgy. In 1932 Carrara entrusted him with the editorship of a new journal; L'Organista liturgico; which he held until 1943. Alongside his music for organ Picchi also composed vocal works for use by the cathedral choir as well as amateur choral groups and public assemblies; including various motets as well as masses (Cristo risusciti; 1932; Italica; 1940; Christus vincit; 1941) and also educational music (theatrical sketches; school songs) and theoretical works (Scuola moderna di Teoria e Solfeggio; 1941-44). His wish to set the text of the mass in an appropriate manner together with his faithfulness to Cecilian ideals led Picchi to the innovations of his Missa Misericors Deus (1949); published by Ri

The MVcremona tag, which has always been committed to enhancing the musical heritage of the city of Cremona, presents this CD dedicatedto the precious Maineri-Acerbi organ of the church of San Sigismondo, a wonderful church located just outside the city.The first documented news of the construction of this monumental organ dates back to 1567 but the organ only began service in 1572.After an eighteenth-century intervention which partially modified it's phonic structure, a restoration which took place in 1860 by the organbuilder Luigi Vincenzo Acerbis, he configured the current phonic structure, where all the original sixteenth-century pipes both in metal andwood are still present. This makes the instrument very versatile and suitable for performing a wide musical repertoire. The Cremonese organistPaolo Bottini, already a protagonist in the valorization of other historical organs of Cremona through numerous recordings for variousrecord labels, presents in this CD a series of pieces by composers who worked in the Cremona area, starting from himself and going to backin time to Claudio Monteverdi, born in Cremona in 1567, the year in which construction of the organ began.The church and monastery of San Sigismondo in Cremona are governed by an order of cloistered nuns and therefore the Maineri-Acerbiorgan is used only for liturgical purposes this makes this CD even more precious because it allows you to listen to the voice of this historicorgan in a repertoire of exceptional stylistic variety.
