Various Artists - Symphonies of the Bach Familiy - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Every generation creates it's own forms of expression. Often, this happens in abrupt rejection of what has gone before. And not infrequently, the provocative gestures in which a new attitude to life is articulated disappear again just as quickly as they appeared. Such thoughts may also have moved Johann Sebastian Bach when, in the early 1740s, his two eldest sons took up the genre of the symphony, which had come from Italy and was accompanied by a novel treatment of the orchestra and compositional technique. Together with their generational peers, they created an independent line of tradition that was later referred to by music historians as the Inchsymphony of the North German school.Inch The fact that the symphony did not remain a short-lived fashion, favored by a handful of young savages, but advanced to become a genre that was soon considered the Inchacknowledged paramount form of instrumental musicInch, was one of the most significant and momentous musical achievements of the 18th century.
