Sacred Music Series: Harpsichord Recital by Christopher Holman

  • St. Gertrude Parish 6543 Miami Avenue Cincinnati, OH, 45243 United States (map)

Christopher Holman presents a solo harpsichord recital exploring the expressive depth and exuberant brilliance of baroque keyboard music. This intimate concert centers around the master composers who comprised the golden age of the harpsichord: the 16th-century Dutch virtuoso Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck, early 17th-century Vatican organist Girolamo Frescobaldi, Johann Sebastian Bach, and the 18th-century African-British abolitionist and composer Ignatius Sancho. The heart of the program is Bach’s stunning Partita No. 4 in D Major and several of his rarely performed pieces for Lautenwerk—a lute-harpsichord hybrid known for its soothing, resonant tone. With historical insight and vivid interpretation, this recital offers a rare opportunity to hear the harpsichord in all its poetic beauty.
