“Inventions: The Harpsichord Across Time and Borders” is a trans-national project to promote and present unusual music for solo harpsichord, drawing primarily on historical and contemporary music by female composers from Scotland, Ireland, and England.
Three new commissions are set alongside historical works, creating connections between different countries and centuries. Parallel recitals will be given in Ireland and England this autumn. The project is gratefully supported by Creative Scotland, Sound Scotland, Arts Council England, the Hope Scott Trust, The Marchus Trust, and the Francis Routh Trust.
