Since finishing his studies, Guy Penson has gained an impressive reputation in Belgium and abroad. He has appeared as a guest-artist at the most important European festivals (France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Hungary, Romania, Russia, Scandinavia), as well as in Canada and South America. As a harpsichordist he performs regularly in solo recitals, and in collaboration with many renowned orchestras.
