Eric
Ewazen’s THREE
INVENTIONS were inspired
by Bach’s Two-part
Inventions, yet they
sound thoroughly like
Ewazen. Composed for
harpsichord (with a piano
adaptation following
later), Ewazen’s
inventions maintain a
pure “one note per
hand†texture until
their final chord, with
strong-but-free imitative
counterpoint between the
two voices. While Ewazen
may be best known for his
wind music, he is a
pianist himself, and
composers’ works
for their own instrument
are a direct insight into
how they write for their
own performances. The
piano adaptation of THREE
INVENTIONS is also
available as a separate
publication. THREE
INVENTIONS was written
for my dear friend Maria
Rojas, who premiered the
work on a faculty recital
at Juilliard. Maria is
both a pianist and a
harpsichordist, and I
first met her when she
gave a demonstration of
the harpsichord for the
students in my theory
classes.I’ve
always been captivated by
Bach’s series of
Two-Part and Three-Part
Inventions. With the
Two-Part Inventions,
I’m amazed how
Bach could create such
wonderful intricacy and
counterpoint with only
two voices. I
consequently modeled my
inventions after the
counterpoint of Bach,
involving the traditional
contrapuntal devices he
used: imitation,
development, harmonic and
modal shifts,
fragmentation, and
sequence, essentially
creating a dialog between
two completely equal
voices conversing with
each other!Bach wrote 15
Two-Part Inventions (as
well as 15 Three-Part
Inventions, not to
mention the 48 preludes
and fugues in The
Well-Tempered Clavier!),
and that’s just
the start of his
voluminous repertoire for
the keyboard! I was happy
just to write
three!!!Each of my
inventions has a
distinctive mood. The
first is in a relaxed,
yet cheerful C Major
tonality (as a nod to
Bach’s Invention
No. 1 in C Major); the
second is heartfelt and
lyrical; and the third
invention (involving a
Gigue rhythm in the
compound meter of 12/8)
is energetic, and full of
life and spontaneity. The
third is primarily in a
minor tonality, resulting
in a feeling of drama,
bringing the THREE
INVENTIONS to an exciting
finale.

These three
solo harpsichord pieces
are a collection of
recent compositions, each
with an individual theme
and idea. The first, The
convertibility of Lute
Strings, was first
performed at the Purcell
Room, London in 1992. The
second, Tango for Tim was
written in memory of a
friend and composer Tim
Souster, which was
composed and first
performed in 1994. The
third piece, Elisabeth
Gets Her Way, is an
extended version of the
cadenza which Elisabeth
Chojnacka persuaded
Michael Nyman to add to
his Harpsichord Concerto,
which includes material
from the first two pieces
in this album.

Preface: Denis
Herlin.
‘Once
again the French
musicologist Denis
Herlin, who mastered the
harpsichord under the
tutelage of such keyboard
legends as Kenneth
Gilbert and Huguette
Dreyfus, has presented an
exemplary edition of a
classic from the
harpsichord
repertoire.’ (Jury
of the German Music
Edition Prize on BA

Bärenrei

published in 1717, In
addition the eight
preludes and one
allemande from his
treatise
“L’Art de
toucher le
clavecin†are
included in the appendix.
For the first time Denis
Herlin has evaluated the
many later impressions of
the original print, most
of which he unearthed
himself in international
libraries. By preserving
the essential features of
the original print while
largely dispensing with
disruptive page-turns
within the pieces, the
volume brings modern
performers close to the
special sound of this
music. Rounding off this
pioneering new edition
are an extensive
Foreword, notes on
historical performance
practice, a comprehensive
glossary, facsimile pages
and a detailed Critical
Commentary.

Richard
Siegel won prizes for the
Harpsichord and Chamber
Music at the Paris
Conservatoire before
going on the win first
prize in the 1977
International Harpsichord
Competition. He has since
recorded over 30 CDs and
his passionfor the
instrument has been
further apparent in his
production of Apprendre
Toucher le Clavecin. As
stated in the preface,
the study of the
Harpsichord has long been
reserved, frequently
dismissed as an
'old-fashioned'instrument
. However, a recent rise
in the popularity of
early music has rekindled
interest in the
Harpsichord. In Apprendre
Toucher le Clavecin,
volume 1 being the first
of two helpful volumes to
aid student's learning
andprogression, Siegel
enables Harpsichord
beginners to learn
through repertoire pieces
themselves, drawn from
the Keyboard masters of
the Baroque period. The
pupil will be guided
towards an understanding
of technique and
stylesuited to the
Harpsichord. Furthermore,
Apprendre Toucher le
Clavecin, which is
accompanied by a CD,
enables adults who learnt
the instrument as a child
to return to the
instrument and have the
instant feeling of making
music.

Jean-He
nri d'Anglebert
(1629-1691) was one of
the foremost composers of
Keyboard music of his
day. Therefore, the
collection of his works,
Pieces for Harpsichord is
essential to all players
of early Baroque Keyboard
music. D'Anglebert's
Pieces for Harpsichord
represents some of the
finest achievements of
the French Harpsichord
school and shows the
composer's mastery of
counterpoint as well as
his ability to experiment
with texture to
achieveorchestral
sonority. Moreover,
d'Anglebert's collection
contains a table of
ornaments which formed
the basis of those of J.
S. Bach and other
significant composers.
The first volume of
Pieces for Harpsichord
comprises fourHarpsichord
Suites composed by
d'Anglebert, each of
which consist of the
usual dance movements
together with
transcriptions from
Lully's operas.
Furthermore, the three
unmeasured preludes
included in Suites one,
two and three aretruly
remarkable examples of
their kind. With a
descriptive preface in
French, English and
German, volume one of
d'Anglebert's Pieces for
Harpsichord is a sublime
addition to the
repertoire of early
Baroque Keyboard
music.

The first
volume of Couperin's
Harpsichord Pieces does
not contain a date of
publication, however, it
is thought to have been
composed during
1716-1717, due to the
address which the
composer gave on his
other Harpsichord
compositions. Yet, the
compilation remains a
favourite. Francois
Couperin (1668-1733) is
often nicknamed 'Couperin
the Great' to distinguish
him from other members of
the musical family. Many
of the composer's works
have picturesque titles.
Examples of this in his
first volume of Pieces
for Harpsichord include,
Les Papillons (The
Butterflies),
L'Enchanteresse (The
Enchanting) and Les
Plaisirs de Saint Germain
en Laye (The Pleasures of
Saint Germain en Laye).
Couperin's moods are
expressed through choices
of keys, adventurous
harmonies and discords.
With a significant amount
of variation and
inspiration, Pieces for
Harpsichord is essential
to the repertoire of
aspiring players of the
instrument..

Ottavio
Bariola was a famous

relatively small number
of his works is known to
survive, among them a
collection of ricercares
and canzonas. The present
edition offers a
selection of ten pieces
of the latter collection.
In agreement with their
genre the compositions
are strictly polyphonic
in structure. In this
edition the works are
included in a four-part
setting with consistent
part-writing. Due to
their volume and grade of
difficulty the pieces are
not meant for concert
hall performance in the
first place but for
enriching the repertoire
of church organists and
lovers of early
music.
