Collection: Instrumental Subcollection: PianoJ. L. Dušek (1760-1812) had a brilliant career as a pianist and composer. His relationships with two harpists (one of whom he married) led to his composing several works for the harp, distinguishing him from most composers of the period. The period square piano used in this recording was restored by Andrew Lancaster. |

Collection: Great Performers Subcollection: PianoStodart square piano, 1823
To many people the high point of baroque keyboard writing, Scarlatti's sonatas are invariably played on harpsichord. Joanna Leach allows a different aspect of the music to show through on the less percussive, but equally "authentic" square piano - here a Stodart instrument of 1823, made within 70 years of the composer's death. |
