Harpischordist Benjamin Alard plays Bach at Köthen, The Happy Years

Celebrated harpsichordist and organist Benjamin Alard performs selections of J.S. Bach’s works written 1717-1723 when he lived in Köthen and enjoyed greater freedom to compose as he felt inclined. This was a golden era for Bach during which he explored musical styles and trends from other countries, integrating them into his compositions. A selection of these works are heard in this concert and Benjamin Alard, with his unmatchable artistry and interpretive skills brings out the ingenuity and freshness of this music.
