Harpsichordist Mahan Esfahani with music from medieval Europe to downtown New York
Harpsichordist Mahan Esfahani opens up a colourful selection of music from the inside - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.
Harpsichordist Mahan Esfahani embarks on a musical travelogue including pieces from Iran, Romania and America. Mahan reveals recordings that made him re-evaluate his feelings towards Brahms and Handel, is thrilled by the musicianship of Maria Callas and happily goes on record to say that pianists should not feel guilty about playing Bach on the piano. Providing they play well...
The harpsichord makes an appearance in the hands of one of the greatest players of the 20th century, Ralph Kirkpatrick, and Mahan is inspired by a new recording by a young Iranian pianist that allows him to hear music by Schoenberg in a whole new way.
A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
