Capriccio’s concert featuring Jean Rondeau rated a 2022 Top Ten Performance
Jean Rondeau’s October 26, 2022, performance of J.S. Bach’s ‘Goldberg Variations’ at Capriccio Baroque is rated a 2022 Top Ten Performance by the Washington Classical Review. Given this young French harpsichordist’s mastery this comes as no surprise. Here’s what the Washington Classical Review has to say about this performance:
‘The best thing about a performance of an ultra-familiar work is if it surprises you. The French harpsichordist, who has made two recordings of this Bach masterpiece, surprised over and over again in this dynamic live performance …from an improvised intonato as prelude, through some extravagantly ornamented repeats, to a stripped-down return of the opening Aria.’
