The Harpsichord Through the Ages

Enchanté Baroque is a mini-series within the Concerts Enchanté 2026-2027 concert season, curated by Suren Barry.  For the second instalment in the series, Suren explores the deep and varied world of the harpsichord.  Although the harpsichord played many roles in repertoire from the 16th century until well into the Classical era and beyond, it undoubtedly stole the show at the height of the Baroque era. Showcasing repertoire across three centuries, this program puts the harpsichord in the limelight, highlighting the fun and intricate musical connections that make Baroque music such a wellspring of splendour and strangeness.

Music:
