He gave over 200 recitals (notably in the USA and USSR), his programmes centering on Bach, Flemish music and contemporary works.
His output as a composer centered on music for his own instrument, and Roberto Marini has chosen a representative selection from a large body of work influenced as much by Gregorian chant as Flemish folk tunes, as the harmonies of Marcel Dupre and by the improvisatory technique of his great friend Tournemire.
Curiously, given his established reputation, there are very few recordings dedicated to this repertoire, which is mostly excerpted in compilations.
But Roberto Marinis recital allows listeners and not only organists to grasp Peeters achievement in the round.
