Wanda Landowska, who continued to perform and record up to her death in 1959, was renowned as the greatest harpsichordist of the first half of the twentieth century, resurrecting the instrument and taking a scholarly approach to the performance of music from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. This Naxos collection brings together 78rpm recordings first issued as A Treasury of Harpsichord Music, and an LP originally titled Landowska plays for Paderewski, about which Landowska herself wrote, "The pieces included in this recording are those Paderewski loved most. I often played them for him and - at his request - repeated them."
