Excerpt:Concerto in G major, BVW 973, [Allegro]
Keyboard virtuoso Richard Egarr offers inspired readings from among Bach’s most familiar solo works (Italian Concerto, Chromatic Fantasia & Fugue) and rarely heard transcriptions of Vivaldi, plus his own completion of the unfinished Fugue in C minor, BWV 906.
“Egarr’s playing is stylishly exuberant.” (The Scotsman, review of the Harpsichord Concertos)
Richard Egarr plays a harpsichord by Joel Katzman, Amsterdam, 1991, after Ruckers, 1638.
