About

Biber’s music exemplifies the Austrian baroque style, which is a combination of Italian and German influences. His works show a predilection for canonic use and harmonic diapason that pre-date the later Baroque works of Johann Pachelbel and Johann Sebastian Bach. He was best known for his highly virtuosic and expressive violin works, many of which employ scordatura (unconventional tunings of the open strings). The Missa Salisburgensis was composed in 1682 for the 1100-anniversary of the Archdiocese Salzburg. This SACD features eight vocal and instrumental choirs, who sang and played this monumental work at the Festival di Musica Sacra dieTrento in 2003.
