About this product
Today, there is no doubt that Johann Sebastian Bach took Baroque music to it's sublime zenith. Just how much Bach was ahead of his time can be gauged by the fact his 'piano' music engaged the greatest among his successors Mozart, Beethoven, Schumann, Chopin, Debussy and Shostakovich. Four pianists perform Bach on this album. They stand for different periods in interpretational history, beginning with the 'New Objectivity' of Carl Seeman, born in 1910, up to the highly virtuoso art of Konstantin Lifschitz, born in 1976 and also taught by Alfred Brendel. The four personalities of the pianists on this album merge with Bach's music, giving a notion of why it is accorded universal magnitude.

Award-winning violinist Christian Tetzlaff continues his highly successful series of chamber music recordings on Ondine continues with a new recording of Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin (BWV1001-1006) by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). Bach's Sonatas and Partitas have an iconic status in the violin repertoire. Yet, little is known about the background of these fascinating works. Bach's autograph manuscript is dated in Köthen in 1720, and it is commonly considered as the year when the cycle was completed. In his booklet notes Christian Tetzlaff offers fascinating perspectives to these masterpieces. Christian Tetzlaff is considered one of the world's leading international violinists and maintains a most extensive performing schedule. Musical America named him 'Instrumentalist of the Year' in 2005 and his recording of the violin concertos by Mendelssohn and Schumann, released on Ondine in 2011 (ODE 1195-2), received the 'Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik'. Gramophone Magazine was choosing the recording of the Schumann Violin Sonatas with Lars Vogt (ODE 1205-2) as 'Disc of the Month' in January 2014. In addition, in 2015 ICMA awarded Christian Tetzlaff as the 'Artist of the Year'. His recordings on Ondine with Brahms' Trios (ODE 1271-2D) and Violin Concertos by DvorAk and Suk (1279-5) released in 2015 and 2016 earned GRAMMY nominations.
