About

Wanda Aleksandra Landowska (5 July 1879 – 16 August 1959) was a Polish harpsichordist, pianist, and composer whose performances, teaching, writings and especially her many recordings played a large role in reviving the popularity of the harpsichord in the early 20th century. She was the first person to record Johann Sebastian Bach's Goldberg Variations on the harpsichord in 1933. She became a naturalized French citizen in 1938.
