Music Written for the Women Who Gave Wing to the Muse
"The outstanding Elaine Funaro reappears
in a charming recital of 20th Century harpsichord pieces...considerable
emotional variety...an exciting technique and expressive range...lively
and inventive performances..."
American Record Guide 2002
"Bravo
on your new CD!" "Overture to Orpheus" is a great triumph. The playing
is so expressive. I love the sound and the clarity of the instrument
is faithfully recorded.
Fran Bedford,
author of Harpsichord and Clavichord Music of the Twentieth Century
The choice
of pieces is wonderfully inventive, and you have a highly interesting
number of "firsts" under your belt. Your playing, as usual,
is technically brilliant, and Chris Greenleaf has done a splendid
job in capturing the sounds of the harpsichord.
