Synopsis

Album Description
Among his early keyboard works, the Prelude, the Toccata, and the Fantasy represent a type of composition that allowed Johann Sebastian Bach to approach the limits of keyboard playing outside a strict formal framework. This recording by Léon Berben displays, in an impressive manner, the virtuosity that liberation from form allows. The early keyboard toccatas are some of the most mysterious and most fascinating of Bach's works--they don't exhibit any of the characteristics of his later, more mature compositions.
