Padre Antonio Soler’s extraordinary Six Quintets for Organ and String Quartet are one of the almost unknown major post-Baroque masterpieces of our time, blending the Baroque and early Classical styles with a savoury seasoning of Spanish folk music and dance.
They were written for the musically gifted Prince Gabriel of the Madrid Royal House who demanded they be written for a new instrument of extraordinary compass (GG to f3) to be built by José de Casas rendering them unplayable by other musicians. A special instrument (no longer in existence) was built for him and installed at the Monastery of Escoril
