Ramsay’s playing is fluid, clean, and sounds easy.

Ramsay sidesteps these challenges, and the lovely if echoic acoustic of King’s College Chapel – which gives the harp a sometimes overwhelming shimmering acoustic ripple – by playing subtly with tempos and dynamics, effecting what must be some very nifty footwork on the pedals, as well as finger-twisting work on the strings. None of this effort comes across in the nuanced, insightful playing.

Marked by keen musical intelligence...

"That it can be done, and done so well, is a testament both to Parker Ramsay’s ingenuity and his splendid technique.

"like a radiant mirage… it’s relentlessly beautiful…"

"I kept struggling with what my ideal 'Goldbergs' might sound like. I wanted the raw pluckiness of the harpsichord, but with the expressive qualities of the piano. About five years ago, I came to realize that the way to hear this work — and most of Bach, for that matter — as I wanted would be to use my first instrument, the modern pedal harp."

The harp rearrangement of Bach's keyboard music is a resounding success...
