Grisvard Diderot

After early French violin concertos with Johannes Pramsohler and North German cello concertos with Gulrim Choï, it is now the turn of Ensemble Diderot’s harpsichordist to distinguish himself in this genre: Philippe Grisvard has chosen the repertoire of composers from the court of Frederick II, thus continuing Ensemble Diderot’s comprehensive exploration of the style of the Berlin School. The decision not to include Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach in this program facilitates the rehabilitation and rediscovery of composers whose contribution to the concerto genre is no less important. The result is a completely new program of virtuoso works in which the spirit of Bach father and son shines through time and again.
