Diego Ares

In the 18th century, Francisco Pérez Mirabal built the most beautiful harpsichords in Seville. Around that time, Francisco de Tejada compiled the first Spanish keyboard collection there and Seville became the home of Domenico Scarlatti. Francisco Correa de Arauxo was Seville's very own keyboard ‘pope’ and Antonio Soler the cathedral's brilliant organ consultant... Diego Ares leaves no stone unturned to unravel this love story between Seville and keyboard music.
