Ketil Haugsand (harpsichord)About
Ketil Haugsand, professor of harpsichord at the Hochschule für Musik in Cologne, counts as one of the great harpsichordists and Early Music personalities of today. The Norwegian-born musician studied, among others, with Gustav Leonhardt at the Amsterdam Conservatory, where he was awarded the coveted 'Prix d'Excellence'. He has recorded extensively in repertoire including Bach, Rameau, Marchand, Seixas and Sousa Carvalho. Haugsand has built the harpsichord used on this recording himself and has based it on a Late-Flemish type instrument.
In the late 1600s, the musical family Forqueray was well established at the court of the Sun King Louis XIV. The new Italian style was the latest fashion, and father Antoine was a viola da gamba virtuoso. When Antoine died, his son Jean-Baptiste published his father’s music for gamba, adding his own transcriptions and adaptations for the harpsichord.
