Arne: Organ Concertos

Thomas Arne, prolific creator of operas, oratorios, concertos, sinfonias, and sonatas unjustly overshadowed by the works of Georg Friedrich Händel, is most famous for "Rule, Britannia!" outside his native England today. This recording of his virtuosic organ concertos (which surpass Händel’s organ concertos in their artistry) will rectify that. Andrzej Szadejko, accompanied by the Goldberg Baroque Ensemble, delivers a brilliant performance on the authentic Rohde organ from 1761 – the first recording since its reconstruction in 2020.
