This is a masterpiece collection that crystallizes Rameau's outstanding talent in both compositional technique and harmonic technique.\n\n\n\nJames Richman is a rare musician who is the first since Bernstein to graduate from all three schools, Harvard University, Juilliard School, and the Curtis Institute of Music. He studied conducting, piano, and harpsichord with the world's greatest masters, and is now known as a leading conductor in the realms of baroque music and opera. His achievements have been widely recognized, and in 1995 he was awarded the Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French government.\n\n\n\nThe recording uses a French-style two-tiered keyboard harpsichord, a faithful reproduction of Pascal Tascin's 1769 harpsichord.The instrument, built in 1980 by John Koster, curator of keyboard instruments at the National Museum of Music and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, has recently been restored and toned by Claire Hammett, bringing back its rich and brilliant sound. This recording offers the quintessential Rameau artistry of the virtuoso Richman and the French harpsichord.\n\nTokyo M-Plus\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rubicon Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52171569561889,"sku":"5065002228949","price":336.0,"currency_code":"MOP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/5065002228949.jpg?v=1766641963","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-mo\/products\/5065002228949","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
