Anna Noferini, Luigi Cozzolino Georges Ivanovitch Gurdjieff. Hymns And Songs, Musique Pour Les Mouvements(2024)

The complete organ Masses of the Grand master of French Baroque, Francois Couperin. Couperin was a keyboard virtuoso, both on the harpsichord and organ; he wrote these Masses as principal organist of the St. Gervais Church in Paris. The ornamental French style of Couperin is blended with Italian influences with the emphasis on fluent melodic lines and daring chromaticisms in harmony. New recording, by international prize winning organist Adriano Falcioni (who already recorded the organ works of Cesar Franck, BC 94349) and the female vocal group Armoniosoincanto.

Georges Gurdjieff ((27 décembre 1877 - 29 octobre 1949) est une figure célèbre de l'ésotérisme.

Four hand music (not 4 hand piano): music written by two composers that both came from different musical backgrounds and culture
G.I. Gurdjieff - Twenty years later, in 1912, Gurdjieff returned to Europe, where he presented a new teaching: a non-religious path toward the inner evolution of man. Various generations of disciples gathered around his doctrine and his beliefs found strong echo in the work of Rene Daumal, P.D. Ouspensky, Alexander de Salzmann, Frank Lloyd Wright, Pierre Shaeffer, Peter Brook and T. De Hartmann himself.
T. De Hartmann - In 1912 he wrote the short essay "Anarchy in Music" which later appeared in the volume Der Blaue Reiter, by Kandisnky himself and Franz Marc. It proved to be one of the major manifestos of XXth century art. Keen on understanding the various bonds that connect different forms of artistic expression, De Hartmann was gifted in his research by an extremely free and unconventional spirit. Back in St. Petersburg, in 1916 he met Gurdjieff, who was to have a great influence in his life.

The film trilogy of Mr. Gurdjieff's life and teaching was begun in 1996 as a Gurdjieff Legacy Foundation group project and completed in 2003. The aim was to work consciously and intentionally on a demanding and complex task to create a tribute to Gurdjieff and his teaching.
