Harpsichord Music Presentation 6 (end)





"True music literally keeps the voices of insanity away."

All the Harpsichord compositions i published in my blog give me mental comfort and make me imagine things, take me away, relax me, and are precious to me because of why i listen to them so much every single day. Many years ago i heard a harpsichord being played, but i didn't know what it was, much time later, after hearing it again on a television show, i finally decided to search for what it was that produced that sound. I discovered the name and right after i saw the musical instrument that created such interesting sounds that i felt so attracted to, i don't even know why! More than 3 years have passed, and i've found some true musical treasures so well hidden and so rich and precious, i feel attached to them somehow. There are many types of harpsichords that produce different sounds, the ones i like are very few, and i felt something inside me some time ago, when i finally discovered true music, and it felt so special to me, i absolutely adore harpsichord music, but i have to search really hard to find the compositions and versions superior to all others, and those are the ones i listen to, and promote.

Harpsichord Music Presentation 5





Handel harpsichord suite n.7 in G minor
Handel suite played by Ludger Remy






Johann Jakob Froberger (May 18, 1616 – May 7, 1667) was a German Baroque composer, keyboard virtuoso, and organist. He was very well known during his lifetime and modern scholars consider him to be one of the most important keyboard composers before Johann Sebastian Bach. Froberger came from a musical family and his constant striving to be the best that he could be shows a mature consciousness to be living for the service of others, first for his family, then for his community, then church and state. His core philosophy was to be of help for the greater good in music.
