About

This album is a recording premiere of music from Warmia, related to the local centres associated with the Catholic Church, including the cathedral school in Frombork and the collegiate school in Dobre Miasto.

The musical source material that became the basis of this recording has been recently found in the collections of the Library of the Higher Theological Seminary of the Warmia Metropolis 'Hosianum' in Olsztyn by its director, Fr Tomasz Garwoliński, who then became the originator of the recording project.

The repertoire performed on the album consists of compositions left behind by Warmia bands active at church centres. The oldest of the rich collection of more than 800 preserved works can date back even to the 16th century. These are mainly sacred vocal and instrumental compositions, including arias, vespers, litanies, offertories, graduals and masses, but also secular compositions. They were written by well-known composers at that time as well as by the ones whose fame did not go beyond the Warmia centres.

For the purpose of the recording, the composition of Jan Křtitel Vaňhal (1739–1813) Quis nos seperabit, three anonymous fragments of the Offertorium and Missa in C major for choir and orchestra by P. Homann were selected.
