Frescobaldi's music had a formative impact on composers such as Froberger, Buxtehude, Couperin and Bach. He stands alongside Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck as the leading keyboard composer of the early 17th century. Barenreiter's Urtext edition of his organ and keyboard works takes all sources into account and presents these pieces in exemplary fashion for professional musicians, musicologists and interested amateurs.
Now Frescobaldi expert Christopher Stembridge presents the final volume with the collections "Fiori Musicali" and "Aggiunta". Each volume in the Frescobaldi Edition is accompanied by a detailed Introduction to the works' genesis, sources, performance practice and editorial method as well as a Critical Commentary.
