Harpsichordist, conductor and musical director of the ensemble Les Talens Lyriques, Christophe Rousset has established himself as one of the world's leading interpreters of Baroque music.

Each of his harpsichord recordings has won numerous awards. His latest releases for Aparté, Bach Fantasy, Louis Couperin and Duphly have won unanimous praise from specialists and audiences alike (Diapason d'or, Classica shock of the year, BBC Magazine...).

With all the research and passion that characterize him, Christophe Rousset offers us the joy of rediscovering the pinnacle of Bach's harpsichord works: the second book of the Well-Tempered Clavier.
