Keyboard Dances from the 1600's with Eugene Petrushansky on Harpsichord

 



This recital presents music from a time so distant and yet so near our own, by keyboardists who attracted international crowds and whose reputations rivaled those of modern rock stars. An amalgam of charming simplicity, dancelike rhythms and exhausting virtuosity, these pieces, despite their age and obscurity, strike a resonant chord with modern listeners wary of the refined artifice of the everyday classical repertoire.

Bay Area Classical Harmonies



Called by some "the most versatile group in the Bay Area," BACH's impressive range of repertoire has included cantatas, symphonies and masses. The Opera division, incorporating stage professionals and up-and-comers, first performed at the Julia Morgan Center for the Arts, presenting a concert version of Mozart's "Le Nozze di Figaro" in December 2000. Since its inception in 1998 by graduate and undergraduate students of the Music Department of UC Berkeley, BACH has cultivated young musical talent through the performance of great classical works for audiences in the Bay Area and beyond. The group attained non-profit status in May 2002, promoting professionalism and providing tax benefits to its donors.
