Zuzana Růžičková, an exceptional personality upon whom the critics conferred the title "First Lady of the Harpsichord", continued the pioneering efforts Wanda Landowska had made to get the harpsichord recognised as an independent concert instrument. The path she took was co-determined by her lifelong relationship to Bach, whose complete works for harpsichord she has recorded, and along it she was also accompanied by a number of friends she regularly met: K a r e l Ančerl, G i d e o n Klein, S v i a t o s l a v Richter, J o s e f Suk. She hasn't, however, remained merely a Bach specialist: in addition to early music, she has recorded all the classic modern harpsichord works, including Poulenc's Concert champetre and her beloved Bohuslav Martinů's Concerto for Harpsichord, awareness of which she helped to raise all over the world. A number of pieces have been written directly for Zuzana Růžičková, among them compositions by Jan Rychlík and the remarkable Sei invenzioni canonici per cembalo by Viktor Kalabis, whom the arpsichordist was married to for over half a century. This representative selection from Zuzana Růžičková's highly acclaimed discography is Supraphon's way of marking her 80th birthday. The overwhelming majority of these recordings are appearing on CD for the very first time. The perfect way to mark Zuzana Růžičková's 80th birthday - a harpsichord feast ranging from Bach to the 20th century.
