She also performs as Egarr's duo partner, recording works by Schubert, Dussek, and others for Linn Records. This solo recording of Bach works centers on the theme of \"arrangements.\" It includes pieces adapted for harpsichord from concertos by other composers and Bach's own violin solos, alongside works originally conceived for other ensembles—such as lute solos or string ensembles—that were later transcribed for solo harpsichord. Her calm yet fluid touch elegantly draws out the essence of each piece. As you listen, the harpsichord's sound seems to evoke images of other instruments—orchestra, organ, violin—as if they were present. The subtle harmonic shifts revealed by the unequal temperament, devised by Richard Egarr based on various 18th-century tuning systems, also contributes to this effect.The exquisite sound of the harpsichord, meticulously reproduced by master craftsman Joel Katzman through LINN's signature precision engineering, is truly captivating. This recording offers a fresh revelation of the vibrant vitality in Bach's music—a composer who, while pursuing polyphonic writing, actively absorbed the Italian style and made it his own.
