Much of the music of Joan (or Juan) Cabanilles (1644-1712) is as virtuosic and colourfully Baroque as that of his northern contemporary, Dietrich Buxtehude, though it is also touched with a distinctively Spanish intensity. He is claimed as the most prolific of all composers for the organ, and publication of his works, begun in 1927, is still under way. This is the third in an ongoing series of recordings designed to restore a great Valencian master to his unique glory.

"I was impressed by the performances at the first volumes, and I am again very happy with what we get here. Timothy Roberts has studied this repertoire thoroughly, and is an excellent guide in this rather unknown territory. He has the assistance of three excellent instruments, which through pitch and temperament are perfectly suited to do justice to Cabanilles' art. No organ lover should miss this disc, and those who have the previous volumes undoubtedly have looked forward to this sequel. I hope that we will see the fourth volume very soon." MusicWeb
