Description
 
The Acte Préalable Publishing House is an unquestionable worldwide leader on the classical music market in terms of premiere recordings of Polish music. The label was founded in 1997 with a principal aim of promoting Polish classical music and the following figures attest to this dedication: over 200 CDs available in the catalogue, including over 100 Polish composers, of which 50 were recorded for the first time, accounting for more than 400 Polish works, mostly first recordings, unavailable elsewhere.

Our albums are recorded by the foremost Polish artists, being an excellent introduction into the Polish musical culture. What is more, the covers to our records present outstanding works of mostly Polish painting and contemporary photography. The booklet notes, written by distinguished specialists, provide in many cases an indispensable compendium of knowledge that could hardly be found anywhere else.

Our recordings are popular with music connoisseurs around the world and are well reviewed by the international press.
Jan A. Jarnicki

The Warsaw Tablature, of which this is the premiere complete recording, is a unique monument of Polish music. It is one of the last collections belonging to the continuous line of organ tablatures, present in Poland since at least the times of the Sagan Tablature (1425-33). Written around the 1680's it contains mostly anonymous pieces coming from various periods and pointing to the Italian and South German cultures, the two being highly influential for Polish music to draw upon. What is exceptional in this set is the fact that it contains organ music written during the mature Polish Baroque period, thus far much depleted of keyboard music monuments. The fate of the Warsaw organ tablature, so called on account of the place where it has been preserved, is even more unclear and complicated than that of other monuments of Polish music.
