New Artist: Harpsichordist and Conductor Mahan Esfahani

11 July 2011

We’re delighted to announce that the virtuoso harpsichordist and conductor Mahan Esfahani has joined the Rayfield Artists roster.

Praised by The Times for his “daring and fiery performances” and by Opera Today as “the leading harpsichordist of his generation” the Iranian-born Esfahani (b. 1984) is the first harpsichordist to be named a BBC New Generation Artist and to be awarded a fellowship prize by the Borletti-Buitoni Trust.

On 18th July Mahan Esfahani will continue his pioneering work with the first solo harpsichord recital in the 116-year history of the Proms, when he will perform Bach’s iconic Goldberg Variations to a full house at Cadogan Hall (more information here).
