Gilbert Rowland is one of Europe’s most senior and accomplished exponents of the harpsichord. Following his critically acclaimed 6-album series of the Harpsichord Suites of Haendel for Divine Art, he moved to the Athene imprint which now specializes in baroque music and “period” instruments for his well-received album of Suites by Johann Mattheson and his first volume of Froberger’s Suites.
This album is the second volume in a projected complete survey of the Harpsichord Suites by Johann Jakob Froberger, whose organ and harpsichord music is individual in nature and ground breaking – he was one of the first composers to settle the “dance-movement” style of “Suite” taken up by Couperin, Bach, and Haendel among many others. There are twelve Suites in this collection. Gilbert Rowland plays a 2-manual French style harpsichord made by Andrew Wooderson after an instrument by Goemans (Paris, 1750).
