Our Take

In the classical music scene, Pierre Hantaï is no stranger to turning heads and dropping jaws with his intricate harpsichord performances. And his latest release, "Bach: Suites Anglaises No. 2 & 6 / Concerto Italien," is no exception.

From the moment you press play, Hantaï's nimble fingers effortlessly dance across the keys, bringing Bach's timeless compositions to life in a way that's both faithful to the original scores and uniquely his own. The sheer virtuosity on display here is enough to make even the most seasoned harpsichord aficionado green with envy.

On "Suites Anglaises No. 2 & 6," Hantaï's mastery of dynamics and phrasing shines through, with each note carefully crafted to elicit maximum emotional impact. The delicate interplay between the different voices in these suites is a joy to behold, with Hantaï's impeccable timing and control never missing a beat.

And on the exhilarating "Concerto Italien," Hantaï pulls out all the stops, channeling Bach's playful spirit with virtuosic flair. The rapid-fire arpeggios and cascading runs are executed with precision and panache, leaving listeners breathless and begging for more.

In conclusion, "Bach: Suites Anglaises No. 2 & 6 / Concerto Italien" is a tour de force of harpsichord virtuosity that cements Pierre Hantaï's status as a true master of his craft. Whether you're a die-hard Bach fan or a casual listener looking for something a bit different, this album is guaranteed to delight and astonish in equal measure. Bravo, Pierre, bravo.
