Basler Madrigalisten & L’arpa festante, Fritz Näf (director) C. P. E. Bach regarded the 1749 Leipzig early version of his Magnificat as one of his most important works. It contains all the elements which aesthetics of the time demanded of a large-scale sacred composition: nobility, polyphonic and concertante choruses, deeply-felt arias, and a great concluding double fugue. The festive music Die Himmel erzählen die Ehre Gottes was written during Bach’s later years as director of music in Hamburg. |

| |  | C P E Bach - Solo Keyboard Music Volume 18Sonatas, Dances and Other Pieces from 1766
Miklós Spányi (tangent piano) On this volume it is the tangent piano that is in focus – an instrument that, according to Miklós Spányi’s description of it in the booklet, has ‘a fundamental timbre that is very clear and bright’. It was extremely popular all over Europe in the 18th century and tangent pianos were still built until around 1850. The works on the disc are all from the year 1766, a highly productive year for C.P.E. Bach, who during it wrote more works for keyboard instruments than in any other year of his career. |

| |  | C. P. E Bach - Concertos & Symphonies
Raphael Alpermann (harpsichord) & Peter Bruns (cello) Akamus-Berlin At the end of the 18th century, the most famous member of the Bach family was not Johann Sebastian, but his son, Carl Philipp Emanuel! This prominent representative of the school of German, and more especially Prussian composers, a pioneer of Empfindsamkeit (the cult of “sensibility”), was prized above all for what his contemporaries termed his “originality” – by which they meant the sovereign ease with which he forged his own style. To understand this, one need only listen to the nine symphonies from his Berlin period, whose radical departure from traditional forms symbolises a stylistic revolution in itself. As for his innovative treatment of the concerto, which overturns all the principles of symmetry so dear to Baroque composers, it seems already to prefigure Romanticism. “Enthusiasm and energy make this disc of lesser-known works a worthy reissue. The Berlin Akademie für Alte Musik had no trouble displaying their customary enthusiastic high-energy style and rigorous tight ensemble. ” Gramophone Magazine, July 2008 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
