Catalogue No: CDA68071-2
Barcode: 034571280714
Gramophone-Award-winning harpsichordist Mahan Esfahani has recorded Rameau�s Pi�ces de clavecin in the historic setting of the Music Room at Hatchlands Park in Surrey. This is a masterclass for the instrument, confirming this young artist as a truly great player: in the words of International Record Review �his technique is beyond criticism and his inherent musicianship goes far deeper than mere surface understanding � it is difficult not to warm to such a musician�.This double album comprises the whole of Rameau�s output of keyboard suites, and Esfahani rejoices in its wealth of genius, its excitement and drama. Rameau is a composer whose revival is ongoing, and his unique combination of the witty and the cerebral, the light and the curmudgeonly, abounds throughout his harpsichord music.
