Jane Chapman, harpsichord

8.00pm, Thursday 10 April 2008

A programme that will intersperse Bach’s Inventions with contemporary pieces for harpsichord, such as György Ligeti’s Hungarian Rock, Continuum, and Passacaglia Ungherese, as well as 3 world premières by Paul Whitty, Robert Keeley and Andrew Poppy.
“The whole thinking behind the concert is to present the harpsichord as an instrument capable of creating new and exciting sounds, also to show the incredible diversity of contemporary musical invention, alongside the uplifting, and emotionally contrasting works by J.S. Bach.” – Jane Chapman.
