Description

Aurelio Bonelli (1569 – 1620) was an Italian composer, organist and painter. Born in Bologna, he was a student of the painter Agostino Carracci. After Adriano Banchieri moved to Imola in 1601 Bonelli took his job as organist at San Michele in Bosco. Towards 1600 Bonelli is known to have been working as organist in Milan. Also, in 1620 he was organist of San Giovanni in Monte, Bologna. Bonelli published at least one a volume of three-part Villanelle, a book of masses and motets, and his Il Primo Libro de Ricercari et canzoni a quattro voci con due toccate e doi dialoghi a otto. This last work was published in Venice by Angelo Gardano in 1602; it is a collection of ricercars, canzonas, toccatas and eight-part madrigals.

“This is a wonderfully charismatic disc with playing of the highest quality. I cannot recommend it highly enough.”

“Under the Spell of Spain is an extraordinary CD, in company with the finest large brass ensemble recordings ever made. This is a must buy CD!”

Don Lucas
Boston University writing in the International Trombone Association Journal

“Stunning playing all round and a perfect 'snapshot' of the incredibly high standards of performance in brass playing in London today."

Peter Bassano
Head of Brass Royal College of Music (retired)

“Exploding onto the brass music scene with their debut album ‘Under the Spell of Spain’, the depth of versatility and virtuosity within the ranks of Superbrass has firmly secured it's place as one of the greatest large brass ensembles of all time”

Tom Davoren

“The arrangements all sound fresh, and the playing is beyond reproach.”

Dr. Gavin Dixon
Classical CD Reviews

“Many recordings over the last few decades have demonstrated the superb quality of British brass playing; 'Under the Spell of Spain' will rightfully take its place among them.”
