Laurence Cummings (harpsichord)

The harpsichordist Laurence Cummings is the supremely gifted and versatile Director of the London Handel Orchestra. This CD is being released just in time for the annual London Handel Festival which begins at the end of February and ends at the beginning of April. The recording took place in the Handel House Museum.

“Cummings is more measured and grave [than Pinnock], but the cumulative effect of the eight suites (especially the seventh, with its tremendous Passacaglia) is quite wonderful – this is like Handel playing to you in your own living room.” The Observer, 18th April 2010

“Cummings doesn't miss a detail: every trill and ornament is realised with the utmost clarity and his expertly balanced playing manages the rare feat of making the melody lines truly cantabile. Without fail, Cummings strikes the perfect combination of joyful characterisation and unfussy good taste.” Gramophone Magazine, August 2010
