They were first served as an adornment for the aristocracy at the court, but by 1800 they had become indispensable in bourgeois salons: the fortepiano and harp. From Paris, the center of harp playing, the decorative pedal harp had spread as a fashionable instrument across Europe. The "gentle nerve-touch of their delicate, ingratiating tone" remained popular for a long time and gave rise to a wealth of new works. The eminent pianist Dussek, who himself performed duos for these two instruments with harpists from his family or circle of friends, composed specifically for the fortepiano and harp: a rare original repertoire was born. Experience this evening how the sounds of the fortepiano and pedal harp merge, but also amusingly concertize with each other!
