About the album

hese works offer a variety in intellectual depth and technical difficulty - all of which is heard to great effect at the hands of Lucy Carolan on the two instruments used; Von Nagel (Paris) 1988, after Michael Mietke and Michael Johnson 1996, after Goermans-Taskin.

Het eerste volume van Carolans opnames van Bach
Het eerste volume van Lucy Carolans opnames van de klaviermuziek van Johann Sebastian Bach bevat de Zes Partita’s uit het eerste deel van zijn Clavierübung. Deze werken bieden een grote diversiteit aan intellectuele diepgang en technische uitdagingen, die met geweldig resultaat ten gehore worden gebracht door Carolan op twee verschillende instrumenten: een klavecimbel van Von Nagel naar een instrument van Michael Mietke en een klavecimbel van Michael Johnson naar een instrument van Goermans-Taskin.

Bachs eerdere suitedelen waren duidelijke imitaties van Franse modellen. Tegen de tijd van de Zes Partita’s combineerde hij deze Franse invloed met vele andere strengen om zijn gerijpte stijl te vormen. Hij gebruikte deze strengen, los of met elkaar verweven, voornamelijk om contrasten te creëren. Door de traditie van de vrije prelude te interpreteren als een vrije keuze van het eerste deel kon Bach de Franse ouverture waarmee de Vierde Partita begint tegenover het Praeambulum van de vijfde zetten, een ‘concert’ in Italiaanse stijl. Naast het tegenover elkaar zetten van nationale stijlen maakte hij ook gebruik van verschillende onderverdelingen van het ritme om ervoor te zorgen dat geen twee allemandes of courantes hetzelfde klonken.

Composer(s)

Johann Sebastian Bach

Johann Sebastian Bach was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period. He enriched established German styles through his skill in counterpoint, harmonic and motivic organisation, and the adaptation of rhythms, forms, and textures from abroad, particularly from Italy and France. Bach's compositions include the Brandenburg Concertos, the Goldberg Variations, the Mass in B minor, two Passions, and hundreds of cantatas. His music is revered for its technical command, artistic beauty, and intellectual depth.  Bach's abilities as an organist were highly respected during his lifetime, although he was not widely recognised as a great composer until a revival of interest in and performances of his music in the first half of the 19th century. He is now generally regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time.
