18TH-CENTURY FLEMISH HARPSICHORD MUSIC - EWALD DEMEYERE (HYBRID SACD)

Eighteenth-century Flemish harpsichord music today is mostly identified with the Pièces de clavecin of 1731 by Joseph-Hector Fiocco (1703-1741). Although this collection, consisting of two major harpsichord suites, undoubtedly forms the high point in the genre, I want this CD to show that Fiocco was certainly not the only good Flemish harpsichord composer. (For those interested in Fioccos harpsichord works, I refer to my complete recording of his Pièces de clavecin (ACCENT 24176, 2007)). The repertoire of this CD is the result of an artistic research project I carried out into eighteenth-century Flemish harpsichord music, based on the rich collection of the Antwerp Conservatory library.Demeyere shows us that there is more to Flemisch harpsichord music than only Fiocco;s music and this cd is a unique statement for that and takes us into the wealth of other compostions of the eighteenth century. 01.
