description
Zachow was born in Leipzig, into a family of musicians. As was customary in these times he learned to play most of the instruments in general use: violin, oboe, dulcian, treble, cornet, harpsichord and organ. At age 21 he was appointed organist of the Liebfrauenkirche in Halle, a prestigious post. Here he settled as a highly respected musician, composer and teacher. Among his students was George Frideric Handel, whose genius he immediately recognized. Händel held his teacher in high esteem and provided for his family after Zachow’s death.
Zachow’s style is representative of the Central-German keyboard tradition, in which a highly developed counterpoint and a dramatic rhetoric are the key elements.
This new recording presents the complete organ works by Zachow, including preludes, fugues, Choral-Partitas and Choralvorspiele.
Played by one of the foremost Italian organists, Simone Stella, whose extensive discography for Brilliant Classics received 5-star reviews in the international press, and which includes the complete keyboard works by Walther, Heinichen, Buxtehude, Pachelbel, Reincken, Froberger and Böhm.
