An Afternoon with C.P.E. Bach

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

Devised and written BY STEPHEN ROE
C P. E. Bach is a paradoxical and elusive figure - rooted in the music of his time, but also anticipating the sensibilities of the Romantics; a conservative court composer capable of the wildest flights of fancy. This
Programme surveys his output - sonatas and solo keyboard
Pieces, symphonies, a concerto, a cantata and attempts to unravel the contradictions and examine his importance as a composer and as the supreme Keyboard master of his day. Records. Producer ANDREW LYLE
