Programme Note
Italian harpsichord duo Luigi Accardo and Enrico Bissolo present a programme for two harpsichords.
Playing in a harpsichord duo was a very common musical practice all around Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries. François Couperin at Versailles and JS Bach in Leipzig were the most devoted exponents of music for this particular ensemble.
