Featured on this album, Missa ex DJozef Zeidler (around 1744-1806) was intended for four voices (SATB) and instruments - two violins, two trumpets and organs. Zeidler displays in it solid compositional skill, which abounds in a variety of employed means. The collection includes two compositions by Antoni Habel (1760-1831), including one symphony. Symphonia was written for two violins, a viola, two flutes, two horns and a basso. In the then Commonwealth, church centers and bands acting in them played a major role in popularizing the symphonies. They served as a setting of church services. It was therefore a type of a local church symphony, which drew on European standards. Habel's Symphony is an example of this. The MUSICA SACROMONTANA Festival serves the continuation of the intentions of the Filipino Order, who wanted to evangelize through the broadly understood propagation of culture. It is thanks to their efforts that in the 17th century a great band was created there, and the greatest composers came to Gostyn.
