Award-winning French keyboard virtuoso Benjamin Alard returns to San Diego for a set of two all-Bach performances: one on the harpsichord and the other on the organ. Alard is in the midst of recording the complete J. S. Bach keyboard works, projected to run to seventeen volumes.

Of his recordings, The Classic Review writes, “Alard creates an…enthralling performance, with subtle variances in timbre and a masterful management of…accumulating power….[T]he series…will undoubtedly be one of the most important recording projects of this century.”
