Description
Flemish composer Johan Huys is equally proficient on all keyboard instruments, but he is best known as a harpsichordist.
He was president of the competition at the MA Festival Bruges for 39 years.
For this world famous competition, which is inextricably linked to him, he composed several pieces for harpsichord, including the compulsory work for the 2018 harpsichord competition: Ceci n'est pas une passacaille.
His former pupil Guy Penson has recorded this and other outstanding harpsichord works by Johan Juys for this new Passscaille album.
