Description
Keyboardist Steven Devine continues this complete survey of Johann Ludwig Krebs' significant contribution to the keyboard genre with the third volume in this series dedicated to the composer's keyboard works. Featuring one of the three surviving Partitas from a presumed set of six, this album also includes the world premiere recording of Krebs' Six Keyboard Sonatas (Krebs-WV 832-837), that only came to light during the historic restoration of the archive of the Sing-Akademie to Berlin following its removal to Ukraine during the war in 1943. With a compositional style that points to a period later in Krebs's life, these charming, witty and sometimes quirky works clearly demonstrate the composer's confident yet straightforward charm.
