Cembalism

Just another broque musician who is obsessed with baroque music.

My name is not important but the story I want to share is. As a classically trained pianist/violinist, I faced significant challenges that were exacerbated by my lack of access to a real piano. This ultimately led me to quit music. After 6 years, I wandered amidst the darkest bilgewater, confined to a ship for 3 years, devoid of life. In a bid to reignite my musical passion, I got an accordion thinking it was a portable piano. It was so much more and is now my favorite instrument. Post-ship life, I discovered the harpsichord. It's lack of dynamics, often considered a limitation, became a source of beauty and intrigue for me. Taking away the familiar dynamics of modern music allowed me to truly appreciate the other subtleties of musical expression.

This channel aims to empower musicians from all backgrounds to engage with baroque music and instruments, while finding new ways of expressing and interpreting modern music.
