In the history of music, Sigiswald Kuijken is one of the names that keeps returning.
The record lists Sigiswald Kuijken as Belgian musician.
Sigiswald Kuijken was born at Dilbeek in 1944. His recorded nationality is Belgium. He trained at Royal Conservatory of Brussels.
Broadcast radio, the LP and the touring circuit made this the first era in which a musician could reach a mass audience without ever meeting it.
He worked as conductor, music educator and university teacher.
The instruments recorded are violin and viola.
His work is classed as classical music and baroque music.
Performance is the most perishable art and recording the most durable; a career sits between the two.
That the work came out of Belgium shaped it: musical traditions, training institutions and the reach of a recording industry all differ by country.
