Johann Sebastian Bach

 

The Six French Suites, BWV 812-817; Little Preludes, BWV 924-943

 

Peter Watchorn (harpsichord)

 

Bach’s six French Suites, BWV 812-817 are among the composer’s most satisfyingly melodious works for keyboard. Less demanding than the great English Suites and Partitas, they represent Bach at his most tuneful and galant, giving the lie to any notion that his music was always severe in its contrapuntal demands, or lacking in melodic sensuousness. Completing this set are the short preludes from the Clavierbüchlein for Wilhelm Friedemann, composed to develop the musical skills of Bach’s children.

Johann Sebastian Bach

 

Das Wohltemperierte Clavier, Book II

 

Peter Watchorn (pedal harpsichord)

 

By the 1740s, J. S. Bach was engaged in the task of bringing his life’s work to some kind of final form. By 1742 he had compiled a second collection of preludes and fugues in all the possible major and minor keys, which he named Das Wohltemperierte Clavier, Part II, complementing his original set from twenty years earlier. Peter Watchorn presents this monumental work using a German-style harpsichord and pedal harpsichord in performances of unrivalled depth and power

J.S. Bach - The Complete Motets

 

Orchestra and Choir of Trinity Wall Street - Julian Wachner, Conductor

 

Bach’s seven motets represent the continuation of a long and distinguished tradition of vocal composition, dating back to the late medieval works of Dufay. Bach’s motets represent the apogee of the genre and are his most demanding vocal works. The present recording is the first in a new series with the musical forces of Trinity Wall Street, conducted by Julian Wachner. It is released to commemorate the 10th anniversary of September 11, 2001.
