About the artist Gustav Leonhardt

Gustav Leonhardt, born 30 May 1928, is a highly acclaimed Dutch keyboard player, conductor, musicologist, teacher and editor. Leonhardt has been a leader in the movement to perform music on period instruments. The keyboard instruments on which he has performed and recorded include the harpsichord, pipe organ, claviorganum, clavichord, and fortepiano. From 1947 to 1950 Gustav Leonhardt studied organ and harpsichord with Eduard Müller at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis in Basel. He made his debut as a harpsichordist in Vienna in 1950 and studied musicology there. He served as professor of harpsichord at the Academy of Music from 1952 to 1955 and as professor of harpsichord at the Amsterdam Conservatory from 1954. He was also a church organist. Leonhardt has performed and conducted a variety of solo, chamber, orchestral, operatic, and choral music from the Renaissance, Baroque and Classical periods. He and Harnoncourt undertook the project of recording the first complete cycle of Bach's cantatas on period instruments; the two conductors divided up the cantatas and recorded their assigned cantatas with their own ensembles. The undertaking took almost twenty years, from 1971 to 1990. Leonhardt has also recorded Bach's St Matthew Passion and Mass in B minor, and much other baroque choral music. Among the awards given to him are the Medal of Honour for the Arts and Sciences from the Netherlands, presented to him by Queen Beatrix in 2009, and the 1980 Erasmus Prize, which he shared with Harnoncourt; it honoured their recording of the complete Bach cantatas on the Teldec label. Leonhardt is doctor honoris causa of the universities of Dallas, Amsterdam, Harvard, Metz and Padua. In 2007 he was made Commander in the Crown Order in Belgium.
