<<< << -- 8 -- Peter G Howell LE GRAND CLAVECIN -- >> >>>

The first piece was an arrangement for two harpsichords by Oksana and Matthieu Delaforge which added stereo understanding to a piece by Rameau that was implicit in the original score, but became explicit in their arrangement. The Boccherini Fandango hit the audience and there was suddenly sunshine on a very grey but promising day! The excellent musicianship of the group made the whole a great joy to listen to.

For Oksana, a former pupil of Imbi Tarum, it was a particularly significant event to be playing again in her own country. She now lives and works in France.
