Italian Harpsichord after Grimaldi
This splendid instrument, with its beautifully vocal treble and powerful bass will be used for several new recordings on the Musica Omnia label. First will be a complete recording of the harpsichord music of Henry Purcell, the great English composer, who was equally adept at composing in the Italian and French styles. In addition to the eight harpsichord suites, the recording will include all of Purcell's surviving music drawn from his works for the theatre. A second CD is planned, a recital with soprano Sherezade Panthaki and Peter Watchorn of Italian works for soprano and harpsichord.
