KLAVIER SONATEN 3 (AUSWAHL) / SELECTED PIANO SONATES
Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach
As a pedagogue and composer, Johann Sebastian Bachs second eldest son, Carl Philipp Emanuel, was preeminent in the field of keyboard music during the transitional period between the baroque and classical eras.
From his over 150 keyboard sonatas we have assembled a three-volume chronological selection that focuses on attractiveness and variety. Moreover, it makes available many previously unpublished sonatas. After all, sixty of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bachs keyboard sonatas remained unprinted during his lifetime. This volume is the last of Henles three-part anthology edition of selections of his piano sonatas, and contains 11 sonatas from between 1760 and 1783, three of them published here for the first time. Many performance instructions from C.P.E. Bachs important musical instruction book, the Versuch über die wahre Art das Clavier zu spielen (Essay on the True Art of Playing the Keyboard), find their way into this volume, including a table in which the most important ornamentation signs and their proper executionare brought together.. The available sources for our Urtext edition have been autographs, first prints thatappeared during Bachs lifetime and manuscript copies from Bachs circle.
Darrell M. Bergs preface provides important performance suggestions concerning the prescribed ornaments. With Bergs table of the most important embellishments and their correct rendition, the player is optimally equipped to study Bachs keyboard sonatas.
