Music
The Art of the Harpsichord
A nostalgic, underground baroque night.
Harpsichordist Alastair Ross plays Bach, Handel, Laschanzky and their contemporaries, celebrating an instrument that liberated the baroque imagination. In the baroque era, the harpsichord was an instrument of infinite possibilities, opening new vistas to professional composers and bringing music into the home where previously unheard voices were emboldened to create and inspire. Ross joins forces with Laurence Cummings to recreate a musical revolution where keyboard masters capture the sunlight and brilliant noblewomen make themselves heard at last through music that sparkles with invention and emotion.
