CHRISTINE SCHORNSHEIM, harpsichord (Ruckers, 1624)
Christine Schornsheim, one of the most eminent specialists for historic keyboard instruments, has finalised her recordings of Bach's Wohltemperirtes Clavier on the Ruckers-Harpsichord at the Musée Unterlinden in Colmar this year. Only a few specimens by the celebrated harpsichord maker from 17th century Antwerp have survived and are still fully functional today. "It is the most beautiful instrument I know, a nightingale: modest on the outside but its sound bedazzles. It is earthy, warm and singing, with a bright responsiveness; it has everything that is essential for Bach's polyphonic music."

This project has been a long-held wish by the artist. It was of particular importance to her to demonstrate that this was not a piece of "unwieldy" music but part of Bach's colourful, varied and melodious cosmos of music. For that purpose the artist and her instrument have formed a
congenial bond.
