Summary of This Score
This edition highlights the importance of Bach in the artistic development of Wilhelm Kempff, through a selection of pieces arranged in a classical pianistic aesthetic. You will find chorale preludes as well as emblematic movements borrowed from Bach's cantatas and sonatas, adapted for piano with attention to voice clarity and melodic line. The result offers a repertoire that is both noble and expressive, perfect for developing hand independence, counterpoint management, and touch quality.
Designed as a true complement to the established pianist's repertoire, this score is aimed at both curious music lovers and instrumentalists seeking characterful works off the beaten path. Thanks to the "Historical Repertoire Series" by Bote & Bock, this collection invites rediscovery of less frequently programmed pages, while remaining rooted in Bach's essential universe. A relevant choice for daily musical work, stylistic study, or preparation of an intimate concert program.
