Harpsichord Music by Johann Ludwig Krebs (1713 – 1780)

Although a favoured student of J.S. Bach, Johann Ludwig Krebs didn’t see any substantial success in his own lifetime. More recent assessments have discovered a highly educated, enlightened and open minded musician who was clearly highly accomplished as a performer, demonstrating a fascinating synthesis of Baroque, Galant and Classical forms. In 2021 Steven recorded two volumes of a projected four-volume survey of the harpsichord works of Ludwig Krebs. Volume 1 was released in September 2021 on the Resonus Label (RES10287)
