Gustav Leonhardt was one of the finest and most influential musicians of the entire twentieth century. On the harpsichord and the organ, from the music of Byrd to that of the sons of Bach, he was simply incomparable. The present release is a rare, remastered organ recording of Gustav Leonhardt from 1962, on one of Holland's most important historic instruments. This is his only anthology of English Renaissance repertoire on the organ, including works unique to this recording. This recording has not previously been available on modern formats, and has not appeared in any of the various ‘Gustav Leonhardt Editions’ issued by the labels for which he later recorded.
