Handel: Complete Harpsichord Music

The most ‘complete’ set of Handel’s music for solo keyboard ever issued in a single release, this box is also testament to the taste and expertise of two superb musicians who have been immersed in the stylish performance of Baroque music for decades. Michael Borgstede’s recording of 15 suites was first released by Brilliant in 2008, and won warm opinions for the same qualities that graced his discs of Bach, Forqueray and Couperin: ‘spruce performances,’ according to Gramophone, ‘consistent in textural clarity, crisp ornamentation and level-headed grasp of the music.’
