This CD contains sacred music Ippolito Ghezzi, an Augustinian friar who lived between the seventeenth century and the eighteenth. A fresh, inspired writing and a sober, but not austere style are the mainstays of the composer's approach to the great Biblical episodes: the intention of this music is to reach the listeners' understanding in a direct (and sometimes also dramatic) way, unfailingly guiding them towards a conversion to faith. The Cappella Musicale di San Giacomo Maggiore in. Bologna, which has chosen the safeguard of the sacred-music heritage (particularly the Augustinian one) as its most cherished hallmark, deserves our praise for the rediscovery of such an excellent musician.
