More information
Several lectures and articles documented the find, as well as the performance as part of a discussion concert in co-operation with the Staatstheater Oldenburg in October 2009, which was recorded and broadcast by Swiss radio. An edition of the harpsichord concerto (in co-operation with the Berlin University of the Arts) is being planned. Another co-operation exists with Nicoleta Paraschivescu(CD recording).
