, was completed in 1396. Under the patronage of Giovanni Corner, the Chapel of San Marco was added in 1420. In 1432-1434 the bishop Vicenza Pietro Miani built the chapel of San Pietro next to the bell-tower. The facade was not completed until 1440, with the cornice is surmounted by three statues (1516) by Lorenzo Bregno The main altar was consecrated in 1469. In 1478, the Pesaro family commissioned a chapel in the apse. On 27 May 1492, the church was consecrated with the name of Santa Maria Gloriosa. The Frari is a parish church of the Vicariate of San Polo-Santa Croce-Dorsoduro. Other churches of the parish are San Barnaba, San Ludovico Vescovo, Santa Maria del Soccorso and Santa Margherita. In the 16th century, however, devotional life changed in a big way; being private, less moral, and contained people from various countries. The congregations got big only when a famous preacher was preaching, or a major feast was taking place. All connections had a relationship with the brotherhood involved in the chruch, as most of the other chapel areas were designed for private groups. This church is notable to hosting funerals and other gatherings for the deceased. Also, in later times, there was some crime and mischief going on with the church. As a result, the Franciscans had been expelled from the church during the 19th century, the church was restored to the order in 1922.The bell tower went through a structural intervention from 1904 to the 1990s that helped fix the cracks in the bell tower.

Choir Screen

In 1475, a choir screen was built at the Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari so that during the service, the monks were separated from everyone else. The change in styles was the only way the choir screen was making progress towards completion. That screen remained the only choir screen in Venice as of today. The front of the screen has a lot of Gothic influence, especially in the late Gothic era. Some of the styles on the screen today were in historical Venetian fasion. Some styles even have a Classical influence, such as the leaves that were formed on the pilasters. The screen had an inscription on the front that was created in addition to the main curtain screen that came from the Romans. The design of the screen had works that influenced from other churches, such as San Zaccaria, Ss. Giovanni E Paolo, and San Michele in Isola.

Architectural Features

The church overall is Venetian Style, as the walls were made of red brick, the beams were decorated on the inside and details were made of Istrian stone. It also has Roman influence, because the columns in the nave contain large cylindrical shafts. The church also contains six smaller chapels as well as the main chapel, three on each side of the main chapel. The baptistery and sacristy were featured along with two other chapels, making the church a family chapel. The church overall has a vaulted Gothic rib ceiling, making the interior's volume large. The church does not have a dome in the middle, making it unique. The materials used were mostly hard and resonant, from marble and Istrian stone tile floors, to masonry walls and vaults with brick covered with intonaco.

Bell Tower Structural Intervention

Cracks started to form on the bell tower in 1904 after St. Mark's bell tower collapse, leading to a structural intervention. The investigation of the Frari bell tower started in 1990, with structural problems taking place in 2000. The tower was investigated deeply in 2001-2003, and used a monitoring system to identify crack patterns. The stress was also measured using Flat jack testing. Overall, the tower was inspected geotecnically very well, including using standard penetration tests, and digging through the bell tower foundation. A structural analysis of the bell tower was then performed, and the forces and loads were calculated to fix the tower. After the investigation, several instruments, including a crack-gauge and a strain gauge were used to keep track of the work on the bell tower in real time. Strengthening interventions were conducted to keep the tower safe, and it was used with a structural/geotechnical monitoring system. The first phase involved using a steel cable connecting one of the columns to the bell tower for the Frari. The second phase involves injecting mortal into the soil, and the soil is strengthened due to increased stress. The most information came from the direct bell tower and precision leveling. The mortar was grouted to determine the velocity of the different intervention phases. At the end, the settlement velocity decreased. The third and final phase involves a structural joint between the tower and the church. Even though it took six months to execute, it worked pretty well as it prevented damage to the bell tower and parts of the church. Even though it resulted in tower deformations, It was one of the big moves in the bell tower. Overall, soil-fracture intervention and structural joint execution both use the direct pendulum. The structural joint helps avoid future cracks when seismic loads occur.

Pipe organs

History The first news about the organ in the Frari basilica dates back to the 15th century. In fact, in 1483 a chronicle of the convent refers to the existence of a "perfectum" organ. Girolamo Diruta (1586-1589) and Giovanni Picchi in service for over thirty years, probably from 1593 at least until 1629, are among the most famous organists of the basilica. An engraving depicting the choir of the basilica, made by Father Vincenzo Coronelli in 1708, shows that at that time the basilica had two organs placed sideways on the choir stalls, facing each other, on the perimeter wall of the choir. The left organ was probably built by Giovan Battista Piaggia in 1732, this instrument could therefore be one of his first works. The activity, known up to now, of this Venetian organ builder extends, in fact, from 1740 to 1760, the organ he built for the Venetian church of San Giovanni Evangelista dates back to that date and has remained almost unchanged; the latter therefore served as a term of comparison to validate the attribution of that of the Frari and, above all, to allow its reconstruction in 1970. In fact, after Gaetano Callido had built the front organ (1795), this instrument was progressively abandoned, so as to reach the early seventies almost completely stripped of the metal rods. The right organ was built by Gaetano Callido in 1795/96. Almost uninterrupted documentation, up to the early decades of the twentieth century, allows us to know how this instrument, unlike the other, was entrusted to qualified organ builders for ordinary maintenance and, from time to time, restored with substantial respect for its authenticity. The problem of restoring the two ancient organs was faced only in 1969, in fact, after the construction of the new Mascioni organ with electropneumatic transmission (1928), an organ located in the apse close to Titian's Assumption, the use of the Callido organ it decreased over time and, so much so that between 1929 and 1969 there were no maintenance interventions. The restoration of the organs involved for the right organ, given the good conditions of conservation and integrity, an intervention of extraordinary maintenance; while a more radical intervention concerned the left organ, in practice, a reconstruction in the strict sense, since there were seven façade pipes, all the internal mechanics, nine wooden pipes and a bellows missing. For this reconstruction all the surviving elements were used and, on the basis of these, also making comparisons with the organ of San Giovanni Evangelista, the measures of the pipes were established. The restoration made it possible to appreciate again the round and robust sounds of the Callido organ and the transparent and delicate timbre of the Piaggia organ, closer to Renaissance sound models. The instruments were eventually tuned in unison to be played together. After more than thirty years, a new revision work was promoted, which was completed in the months of April and May 2004. The practice of the double choir is re-proposed in the basilica of the Frari, thanks to the availability of the two organs placed on two opposing choirs, typical of a musical style in vogue in Venice in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, that of the Frari is the last surviving example in Venice - and one of the rare in Italy - of two choirs with functioning historical organs.

Piaggia organ

Piaggia organ The organ of the left choir, with original integral mechanical transmission, has a single keyboard of 45 notes with a first octave scavezza (C1-C5) and a pedalboard of 13 (C1-E2) with a first octave scavezza, constantly combined with the manual. . The exhibition consists of 21 pipes, belonging to the main register and forming a single cusp with side wings and with aligned shield mouths. The phonic arrangement, based on the position of the knob tie rods of the various stops in a column of the register (whose handwritten tags are original), is as follows: *Main 8 ' *Octave *Tenth Fifth *Tenth Ninth *Second Vigesima *Vigesima Sixth *Vigesima Nona *Human Voice *Twelfth flute *Handset *Double basses 16 '(always inserted)

Callido organ

Callido organ On the right choir there is the pipe organ built by Gaetano Callido, it has an original integral mechanical transmission; it has a single 47-note keyboard with first octave scavezza (C1-D5) and a 17 + 1 pedalboard (C1-G # 2 + Rollante pedal) with first octave scavezza, constantly combined with the manual. The exhibition consists of 21 pipes, belonging to the main register and forming a single cusp with lateral wings and with aligned miter mouths, at the foot of which the tromboncini are housed. The disposition The basilica also housed the Mascioni opus 398 pipe organ, built in 1928. It was placed behind the Assunta altarpiece of the main altar, it was electrically driven, had three keyboards of 61 notes each (C1-C6) and a pedalboard of 30 (C1-F3). It was the largest organ in Venice, the only one with three manuals from the Cecilian period, the only instrument that allowed the performance of concerts with a repertoire that could range from the Romantic to the contemporary period. Despite the transformation of the transmission from pneumatic to electric, the organ preserved all the pipes (about 2000), the bellows and the wind chests (with the exception of that of the third manual which was destroyed by high water during the restoration of the Pala Assunta in the 1960s), the beautiful wooden console table, with its original ivory keys. In 2018, the organ, fully functional and active in liturgies and concerts, was disassembled to allow the complete restoration of the altarpiece and frame of the Assumption, with no idea of where to place it at the end of the restoration of the painting. In 1965 it had already been dismantled to allow the restoration of the altarpiece in a previous intervention, once restored, the organ had been rebuilt in 1977, many parts were destroyed, including the wind chest of the 3rd manual, but many other patios were resumed and reassembled because they were missing, some registers from the same period also made by Mascioni, the patient work was performed by Maestro Alessandro Girotto, the completed organ was inaugurated with a concert by the concert master Sergio De Pieri, then organist of the basilica. Now, however, the instrument has been generously donated to the parish church of Santa Maria Ausiliatrice in Lido di Jesolo (Venice) where it will be mounted (perhaps in 2022?) After the restorations and tampering necessary to try to adapt it to the new different location by of the Zanin di Codroipo company, leaving the city of Venice deprived of its only romantic-symphonic concert instrument.
