Small Worlds

Sounds of St Cecilia's II
We often think that today, the world is more connected than ever. But already in the 18th century, musicians were busy networking on an international level. Haydn’s English connection, Handel’s German-Italian-English influences and Scarlatti’s fame in Spain and Portugal are just a few examples. In this concert you will hear a unique combination of a large, diversely equipped, late 18th century English harpsichord by Broadwood and a Hubert clavichord of the same time. By joining these unlikely partners, this program explores trans-European influences and varied styles. Concert supported by the Keyboard Charitable Trust.
