Despite having reached the highest summits of the historical twentieth century, Respighi’s music is still rarely included on concert programs apart from some scattered performances of Pines of Rome, and a great deal of it remains unknown to the general public or even forgotten in unpublished manuscripts. Even more neglected is his production dedicated to the organ, an instrument which Respighi studied at the Liceo Musicale in Bologna from 1893 to 1900. Despite of having to work on a rather shabby instrument, and following an organ curriculum quite uncanny and sketchy, the composer had enough genius to nonetheless overcome the failings of his training. Respighi's organ music production is probably his most unknown and least considered, yet it deserves very special attention because, despite its minor size if compared to the entire corpus of his work, it shows a very secure musical writing capacity rarely found in a non-practicing organ composer. Respighi is partly inspired by Bach, Busoni and Reger, without losing sight of the Italian masters’ musical heritage, as may be seen in particular in the Suite for strings and organ, written 1914 in a style reminiscent of his own Antiche danze ed arie composed some years later. Andrea Macinanti plays the astonishing and mighty Serassi-Vegezzi Bossi (1855, restored 1910) organ of the Saluzzo Cathedral, and on an equally impressive Mascioni-Zanin (1951, restored 2011) organ of the Udine Conservatory. © SM/Qobuz
