As a
prestigious musician
during the early 1700s,
Royer's Harpsichord
Pieces remains a
favourite in the
instrument's repertoire.
Joseph Nicolas Pancrace
Royer (1705-1755) was
born in Turin, however,
he moved to Paris in 1925
andsoon became
responsible for the
musical education of King
Louis XV's children.
Royer is particularly
known for his extravagant
and virtuosic Harpsichord
compositions, as
displayed in La Pupitre's
compilation of his
HarpsichordPieces.
Comprising famous works
by the composer,
including Suite Bagatelle
and March of the Scythes,
the collection
exemplifies the
composer's skills on the
Harpsichord. Royer's
Harpsichord Pieces is
essential to the
repertoire ofaspiring
advanced players of the
instrument.
