An excellent harpsichordist, Graupner wrote compositions for his own instrument that became well known in his time. His compositions mostly followed the traditional form of the Partita, elaborating the vocal lines in the Courante and Sarabande, and transforming the Gigue into a character piece.

Fernando de Luca is one of Italy’s foremost harpsichord players. In 2006, Fernando was the co-founder of the Sala del Cembalo del caro Sassone, a website dedicated to the harpsichord music of the baroque era.
