William Porter is professor of harpsichord and organ at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York, and also teaches organ and improvisation at McGill University in Montreal. Widely known as a performer and teacher in the United States and in Europe, he is a leader among keyboardists working towards a recovery of an historical and instrument-based approach to musical performance, and has achieved international recognition for his skill in improvisation in a wide variety of styles, ancient and modern. He has taught and performed at most of the world’s leading festivals and academies, and has recorded extensively on the Gasparo, Proprius, BMG, and Loft labels.
