Search - J.S. Bach, John Paul :: The Complete Clavier Suites Of J.S. Bach Volume One

This time out, John Paul and his gut-strung lautenwerck take on some of Bach's most sumptuous and intimate works for keyboard. The Clavier Suites of J.S. Bach are among the crowning glories of keyboard music in the Baroque Era. In them Bach combines German counterpoint with the current flavors of French and Italian musical fashion to produce nineteen works of gracefulness and brilliance. Here is a recording on a lautenwerck. The lute-like sound of gut strings gently brushed by soft leather quills displays at once the intimacy and the virtuosity of these marvelous works. Tracks include the French Suite One In D Minor, English Suite One In A Major and Partita One In B Flat Major.
