About the Performer
Bernard Brauchli, who is on the Faculty of the New England Conservatory of Music and music director of the Cambridge Society for Early Music, is widely known in the field of early keyboard music through his many concerts, recordings, and research, most notably on the clavichord. Mr. Brauchli's work in this latter field ranks him as one of the leading exponents today in the revival of that instrument.
His musical studies have taken place at the Institut de Ribaupierre in Lausanne, the Music Academy in Vienna, and the New England Conservatory where he obtained a degree in musicology. He has worked and studied under Luigi-Ferdinando Tagliavini and the eminent hispanist Macario Santiago Kastner, with whom Mr. Brauchli specialized in early Iberian keyboard music.
