Complete Pieces de Clavecin

A premiere release: the complete keyboard music by Duphly!

Jacques Duphly was one of the most famous keyboard virtuosos and composers of mid‐18th century France. This 4‐CD set presents his entire output for the keyboard, consisting of 4 books, Livres de Pièces de Clavecin. Written between 1744 and 1768 these important works mark the transition from the rich ornamented Baroque style to the more gallant style of the Classical Era, foreshadowing the early keyboard works by Mozart.

An important release, and another feather in the cap of the indefatigable Pieter‐Jan Belder, one of the foremost keyboard players of today, with more than 100 CD's to his name: complete Scarlatti Sonatas, complete Rameau, Marais, CPE Bach, Telemann, JS Bach and many others. Liner notes written by Pieter‐Jan Belder.
