Description

Sweelinck (May 1562– October 1621) was a Dutch composer, organist and pedagogue whose work straddled the end of the Renaissance and beginning of the Baroque eras. He was among the first major keyboard composers of Europe and his work as a teacher helped establish the north German organ tradition. Sweelinck represents the highest development of the Dutch keyboard school and represented a pinnacle in keyboard contrapuntal complexity and refinement before J.S. Bach.  

“Stunning playing all round and a perfect 'snapshot' of the incredibly high standards of performance in brass playing in London today."

Head of Brass Royal College of Music (retired)
