George Malcolm - Harpsichord

 

This disc celebrates four genii: two great composers, an influential instrument maker and George Malcolm. For a whole generation his playing brought baroque keyboard music to life. George Malcolm's favourite instrument was built by Thomas Goff, and was known for its marvellous dynamic qualities, which Malcolm used to exciting and dramatic effect as can be heard on this disc of Bach Italian Concerto BWV 971, Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue BWV 903 and sixteen sonatas by Domenico Scarlatti.
