About

Bach’s last – and unfinished – great work takes us into a world of unsurpassed beauty and refinement. Although no specific instrumentation is indicated in the manuscript, The Art of Fugue was probably meant for the harpsichord, as is convincingly demonstrated by this splendid interpretation by Davitt Moroney, who, moreover, suggests solutions to some of the questions the work has always posed.

“This is as persuasive a case for playing it on the harpsichord as you could wish for.” – Lindsay Kemp, Gramophone, May 2004
