Arnaud De Pasquale

Based on the releases you've provided, Arnaud De Pasquale is a French classical musician who specializes in historical keyboard instruments like the harpsichord, fortepiano, and organ. His work shows a deep passion for Baroque and early Classical period music, particularly the works of J.S. and C.P.E. Bach, Mozart, and lesser-known composers. He's not just a performer; he's also a musical explorer, with projects like "Les Orgues du monde" (Organs of the World) that take him to historic instruments in places like Mexico and Sicily to record their unique sounds.

De Pasquale's approach is that of a historically-informed performer, seeking to play music on the types of instruments for which it was originally written. This gives his recordings a fresh and authentic character. His discography reveals a curious artist who enjoys crafting thematic albums, whether it's exploring the "Empfindsamkeit" (sensitive style) of C.P.E. Bach, recreating the soundscape of "Mozart à Paris," or even playing a harpsichord that belonged to Louis XIII. Through his recordings, he acts as both a virtuoso and a guide, inviting listeners to experience this rich repertoire in a new light.
