About this product

The Partitas are the first work for harpsichord published by Johann Sebastian Bach. Between 1726 and 1730, the partitas were published separately, one per year, before being brought together in a single collection in 1731. Shortly after his appointment of Cantor of the Leipzig Thomaskirche, Bach decided to devote his Opus I to a fashionable genre the harpsichord suite, a series of dances of contrasting character, united by the same key and preceded by a prelude. The Partitas are, to all intents and purposes, Bach's last word on this musical form, the most mature, a sort of collection each type of dance is explored, with a compositional virtuosity that requires from the performer, in addition to an undisputed technical ability, a depth of reading capable of grasping the mathematical relationships that trace the general architecture. Lorenzo Ghielmi, one of the most famous interpreters of Bach's works, presents us with a recording in which elegance and measure allow the beauty and formal rigour of these pages to coexist. Album Tracks 1. Partita No.1 in B-Flat BWV 825 2. Partita No.3 in a Minor BWV 827 3. Partita No.4 in D BWV 828 4. Partita No.2 in C minor BWV 826 5. Partita No.5 in G BWV 829 6.

Bach's English Suites are entitled in a way that is as strange as it is hard to explain, at least at first glance. Contrary to what one might assume, these works are more closely related to French suites than to English music. The title is taken from the inscription InchFait pour les AngloisInch, found on a manuscript owned by Bach's youngest son. In addition to an extensive prelude and four traditional dances - Allemande, Courante, Sarabande and Gigue - each suite also contains InchgallantriesInch, lighter dances that were fashionable at the time. In these dance movements, grace and melody play together with a compositional artistry that elevates them far beyond incidental music for courtly dances. Album Tracks 1. English Suites BWV 806-811 2. Suite No. 1 in a Major, BWV 806 3. Suite No. 2 in a Minor, BWV 807 4. Suite No. 3 in Ga Minor, BWV 808 5. Suite No. 4 in F Major, BWV 809 6. Suite No. 5 in E minor, BWV 810 7.
