Mozart: Violin Sonata No. 12 in G major, K27

In Mozart’s time, the harp became one of the more fashionable instruments and there was a great demand for repertoire. During research in a Parisian library, Nagasawa discovered a score from that period that indicated that the part of the harpsichord could also be played on the harp and decided to do just that. She performs on an authentic 18th century harp with a single action mechanism.

The Duo partnership of Gary Cooper and Rachel Podger has taken them worldwide. Their recordings of Mozart’s Complete Sonatas for Keyboard & Violin have received countless awards and accolades.

Rachel Podger is widely recognised as one of the great violinists of her time – she won a Gramophone Award for her recording of Vivaldi’s La Stravaganza in 2003.

Gary Cooper is established as one of the foremost ambassadors of the harpsichord and fortepiano - in particular, as an interpreter of Bach’s & Mozart’s keyboard music.
