The recipient of important awards and prizes, Charlotte Mattax Moersch first gained critical attention as a top prize-winner in 1980 and 1983 at the International Harpsichord Competitions of Bruges and Paris. She was honored with a Solo Recitalist Grant from the National Endowment for the Arts and a Woolley Scholarship for study in Paris. Professor Mattax Moersch studied with Gustav Leonhardt at the Sweelinck Conservatory, Bob van Asperen at the Hague Conservatory, and Kenneth Gilbert in Paris. Charlotte Mattax Moersch has performed on harpsichord at concerts and music festivals worldwide.

A specialist in 17th-century French music, she is the author of the book, Accompaniment on Theorbo and Harpsichord: Denis Delair’s Traité of 1690, published by Indiana University Press.

Rarely heard French baroque composer Pierre Février (1696–1760) was also an organist and harpsichordist. Février lived in Paris and served as organist at two churches on the Saint-Honoré street: the Jacobins' church and Saint Roch. He composed two volumes of harpsichord pieces the first of which is dated 1734 and contains five suites in the elegant and individual keyboard style of the French Baroque.
