Court and Dance Music


The album features the Esaias Compenius organ from 1610, located in the Palace Chapel at Frederiksborg Castle, Denmark. This organ, crafted for entertainment rather than church use, showcases music primarily from the Renaissance and early Baroque periods. The repertoire includes cosmopolitan dance pieces, English virginal music, and various intabulations. Notable compositions are derived from tablature books by organists like Kleber and Schmid, and lute transcriptions are also prominent. The organ itself is unique, made with exotic woods and featuring innovative design elements typical of Compenius's work. The booklet provides detailed insights into the instrument's construction, historical context, and its role in 16th and 17th-century music .
