Two Harpsichords on the Move

artists

Lisa Schäfer & Gregor Hollmann, harpsichord

A playground of styles: the 18th century’s rapid clavier music development from Bach & Händel to Clementi & Beethoven

Beethoven at the harpsichord? Difficult to imagine, yet in the playground of newly blossoming styles between baroque and classic, harpsichord and piano did coexist for a long time. A good reason for changing our listening habits! A virtuosic harpsichord duo traces changes and movements in the musical zeitgeist and surprises with contemporary harpsichord versions of classical pieces. You’ve never heard a Beethoven quartet or a Mozart symphony like this before. Refreshing!
