About
Francisco Correa de Arauxo, who deserves to be better known, was probably of Portuguese origin but became one of the greatest Spanish organists of the famous Golden Age [el siglo de oro] of the 17th century.
In the musical transition between Renaissance and Baroque, Tientos were the most commonly employed genre of Spanish musicians of the time and these were written particularly for the Iberian organ which has a unique keyboard, divided at middle C in two equal registers.
