"Passacalle", largely synonymous with the Italian "passacaglia" describes a musical form. Originating in Spain, it describes a piece that is built on a four- or eight-bar bassline that is repeated throughout.  
The selection of music on the eponymous album "Forgotten Arias" refers to the circumstance that many composers, though immensely popular in their own time, are largely forgotten. The album is part of an ongoing effort to reestablish some - many would say unjustly - "forgotten" or rather, neglected composers.
