Pierre Hantai (harpsichord)About
“an astonishing display of dexterity in which the harpsichord he uses (a 1999 copy of an anonymous Thuringian instrument of 1720) and the acoustic help in preserving total clarity. Even at maximum velocity (did Scarlatti and his pupil reach such speeds?) he manages to shape his phrases with micro-second dwellings.
“It isn't only the speedy sonatas that are impressive; Kk208 exemplifies his skilful shifts to either side of the pulse in giving the lines a natural 'vocal' quality. It also illuminates Kk185, 310, 199 and 162, in the last of which it's more evident in the playful quicker 'interludes'. The irresistible disc is splendidly annotated by Hantaï and beautifully packaged.” - Gramophone Classical Music Guide, 2010
Scarlatti 50 Sonatas for Harpsichord (MIR273 Vols 1-3):
“Hantai’s agility is something to marvel at, especially as his playing is so clear and rhythmical, even at daringly fast speeds … this is an exceptional Scarlatti collection: three varied programmes performed quite brilliantly on instruments that are ideally suited to the music.” - International Record Review, February 2015
