Francesco Cera |
![]() Francesco Cera has recorded for Tactus, Dynamic and Tempéraments, harpsichord and organ works of important 17th century Italian composers (Rossi, Merula, Storace, Valente, Pasquini). These titles, together with Domenico Scarlatti’s harpsichord sonatas were praised by international music magazines. His recordings of Bach’s French Suites and harpsichord concertos, for label Arts, are considered reference performances of this repertoire. His recent recordings for label Brilliant Classics include "Scarlatti and the neapolitan song" together with singer Letizia Calandra, and the complete organ chorals of Bach's Orgelbűchlein. He is regulary invited to give master's classes in Europe (Smarano Academy, Piccola Accademia Montisi, Academie d’orgue de Fribourg) and the United States (Oberlin Conservatory, Yale University, Cornell University, Arizona State University). He also collaborates with I Barocchisti conducted by Diego Fasolis, having recorded Baroque operas and instrumental works for label Arts, Virgin, and Decca. |
