Martin Souter

1983 virginals by David Law and other unusual keyboard instruments.

The Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge houses one of the world's most important manuscripts of keyboard music. The music was composed by England's greatest composers of the early seventeenth century and ranges from erudite fantasias to exquisite arrangements of popular songs and dances. Both these types can be heard on this album, along with the conventional pairing of slow and fast dances, the pavan and galliard.

Keyboard music by Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven played on period instruments

Three pianos, two from Vienna and one from London, bring to life the original sounds which these, the greatest Classical composers, would have known and expected to hear. Mozart is played on a Hofmann from 1790, Haydn on a Broadwood of 1801 and Beethoven on a Böhm from 1820. All three instruments are held in important museum collections and are played by Martin Souter.
