Info for Immersion

Her choice of repertoire takes us to the sources of the modern piano, halfway between the flamboyant harpsichord of Couperin and the symphonic piano of Beethoven, the works of Scarlatti, Haydn and Mozart form more than a simple assemblage of circumstance: a fruitful and sensitive trilogy which imposes on the listener its lineage as obvious.
