Description

Johann Sebastian Bach wrote much of his keyboard music for the harpsichord, which makes sounds by plucking the strings, rather than hitting, as a modern piano does. Harpsichordist Luca Guglielmi plays Bach on this week’s podcast, in part one of a five-part series of Bach’s keyboard works.
