Biography

After his studies at the conservatory in Ghent Guy Penson started building up a solid reputation as a harpsichordist, both in Belgium and abroad. He became a laureate of some international competitions and was invited by the most important festivals in Europe, as well as in Canada, South America, and Japan. As a harpsichordist he often gives recitals and plays with famous baroque orchestras. He also became a specialised performer on the fortepiano and the tangent piano. As a chamber musician he plays in several duos and trios,with such outstanding partners as the recorder players Frédéric de Roos, Patrick Denecker, Geert Van Gele and Tomma Wessel; traverso player Patrick Beuckels; oboe players Paul Dombrecht and Marcel Ponseele; violinists Florence Malgoire and Dirk Vandaele; and lute player Philippe Malfeyt.
