Faythe Vollrath, harpsichord

Emma Lou Diemer Toccata
Vladimir Tošić Spinal
Toru Takemitsu Rain Dreaming
Lou Harrison Sonata for Harpsichord
Sweelinck and Elinor Armer Variations on “Mein junges Leben hat ein End”
Sunny Knable Keeping Faythe

Faythe Vollrath, hailed by the Wall Street Journal for her “subtly varied tempo and rhythm that sounds like breathing,” proposes an exciting concert of new repertoire for solo harpsichord. Viewed primarily as a Baroque instrument, the harpsichord also occupies an important niche in compositions of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Whether invoking rain in works by Toru Takemitsu, exotic sounds in Lou Harrison’s Sonata for Harpsichord, or wild dancing in a piece by Sunny Knable, this is an experience you won’t want to miss!
