About This Item
It is no trifling thing for a keyboard artist to perform and record the 48, both books of Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier in their entirety. There's more to it than conquering the technical difficulties, which are formidable in themselves. A sense of awe must fill the soul of an artist as he or she stands before a musical Olympus. The commitment requires not just every fiber of physical strength and energy the artist is capable of marshaling, but a dedication to the belief that in the struggle and perseverance to reach the summit lies the triumph of the human spirit. The beginning of this review is it's end Niklas Sivelöv is such an artist. The rest is filler.
