Harpsichord Recital & Conversation

Nathaniel Mander is an early keyboard performer known for his expressive, elegant and virtuosic style. He trained at the Royal Academy of Music with Carole Cerasi and is recognised as one of the leading keyboard artists of his generation. He has been particularly praised for his performances of the French repertoire and for the music of Mozart.

His 2022 recording of Bach's Goldberg Variations received brilliant reviews across the board, and he was awarded the highest accolade by Dutch specialist classical music magazine, Luister. He has performed across the world as both harpsichordist and fortepianist and alongside his poetic and passionate performances he always enjoys introducing the music that he plays in his own personal, light style.

Nathaniel will be performing on a harpsichord which is a close copy of the 17th century instrument originally made by the famous Ruckers family which now lives in Colmar. Made in recent years by Andrew Garlick, it has all the modifications made in the late 17th century that put it in the category of the 'expressive double' harpsichord.
