The harpsichord, originally rooted in the Baroque period, experienced a renaissance in the first three decades of the 20th century and inspired the compositions of that era: Justin Taylor assembled the program for his new album around four major 20th-century concertos (Falla, Poulenc, Françaix, Górecki), connected by solo harpsichord pieces: Bartók, who in his preface to Mikrokosmos – from which this Homage to Bach is drawn – suggests performing certain pieces on harpsichord, Martinů, and a new work by Stéphane Gassot as a nod to Ligeti. The album closes with a tribute to Scott Joplin and his famous rags. Justin Taylor, who always brings great care and passion to his instruments, recorded the entire program on a single harpsichord. He chose an instrument built in the 1970s by Anthony Sidey, a hybrid model between the Pleyel instruments and the historical harpsichord that "offers a broad and highly variable palette of colors." With this album, he follows in the footsteps of Wanda Landowska and Elisabeth Chojnacka, who championed the harpsichord in all its modernity.
