  • Description

    The eldest son of Johann Sebastian Bach was hailed as the greatest organist in his time. Living in a time of transition, Wilhelm Friedemann Bach forged his own highly original style, combining the traditional writing learned from his father with new elements of the \expressive and sentimental period. Among his most famous compositions, the 'Eight Fugues', Fk 31 are miniature jewels. His 'Fantasias' are wonderful examples of the freedom of expression in the new style of 'Empfindsamkeit': a musical movement wherein the music tends towards the expressive and sentimental rather than adhering to the rigid contrapuntal rules imposed by the early baroque era.""
