At age 30, Iranian-American harpsichordist Mahan Esfahani has emerged as a superstar of the harpsichord.
His musicianship, imagination, cultural breadth, and charisma have transcended the ivory tower to which the harpsichord has traditionally been placed. His vast repertoire—from Baroque (Bach, Scarlatti) to the 21st century (Gorecki, Reich)—his seemingly infallible fingers make the harpsichord seem an instrument reborn.
Back by popular demand, the exceptionally gifted Esfahani returns for two harpsichord recitals featuring J.S. Bach’s treasured Well-Tempered Clavier. For the first evening, Esfahani pairs selections from Bach’s masterpiece with a world premiere commission by George Lewis.
