A new album Le Clavecin Moderne, recorded by Alina Ratkowska, featuring contemporary works for harpsichord solo written by Polish composers will be released in November 2016 by Sarton Records.

The CD entitled Le Clavecin Moderne - New Polish Music for Solo Harpsichord is the first album in the artist’s career. Alina Ratkowska, graduate of the Academy of Music in Warsaw and Schola Cantorum Basiliensis in Basel and laureate of first prizes at renowned early music competitions, became engaged in interpreting contemporary music. The recorded compositions were either performed by Ratkowska for the first time or dedicated to her. The names of composers whose music is included on the CD (Miłosz Bembinow, Bartosz Kowalski, Edward Sielicki, Paweł Łukaszewski, Anna Ignatowicz-Glińska, Marian Sawa, and Jacek Grudzień) prove that harpsichord inspires the most esteemed Polish contemporary composers.
