Description: Worgan was one of the most highly respected musicians in the London of his day: Handel admired his playing, and Burney described him as ‘very masterly and learned’. All that survives of his harpsichord music are recorded here, but they encompass an eclectic variety of styles and a surprising range of emotions – proud, spirited, witty, impulsive, touching, vivacious – making Worgan sound something like an English Domenico Scarlatti. Julian Perkins (1772 Kirckman harpsichord), Timothy Roberts (1973 harpsichord after Dulcken - Pieces).
