Haydn Keyboard Trios with harpsichord! More magic from the superb Queen's Chamber Trio, who this time out, take a fresh look at Haydn's keyboard trios from 1794-7.Today typically played on modern grand piano or fortepiano, The Trio's innovative approach enlivens these pieces with harpsichord sparkle and a delicious blend of plucked and bowed strings. "Haydn's keyboard music is stylistically interchangeable between harpsichord and Piano. The harpsichord has a sound with unique acoustical qualities not shared by the modern or early pianos. It makes its presence felt with a sparkle absent in piano sonority. Harpsichord sound stirs my imagination as piano sound never did." Elaine Comparone. Produced by John Ostendorf
