Bach CPE

Enjoyable performances compromised by the use of an anachronistic fortepiano [JV]

Rich and vital performances in excellent sound [DC]

An impressive survey of the art of the Bach family [JV]

A beautiful tone and natural, unmannered playing and flexibility of phrasing [RCh]

Soloist Orazio Sciortino is in splendid form, so there is much to enjoy here [MC]

Unique opportunity to hear baroque flute concertos on historical transverse flutes [JV]

Sane, wise accounts of these strange, beguiling scores [DMD]

Virtuoso playing in superb repertoire – irresistible [DMD]

I’m still not entirely sold on CPE’s keyboard music, but the concertos’ slow movements did impress [DJB]

A captivating disc, which fully lives up to what its title promises [JV]

Isn’t it time CPE Bach moved into the big time? [DMD]

Vibrant and energetic performances, a standout Third Brandenburg, but the disc is underfilled [DJB]

(Déjà Review) Moments of great beauty as well as operating on a real dramatic trajectory [CC]

The most fun musical history lesson I can imagine [DMD]

(Déjà Review) The latest volume in this epic project is as good a place as any to start and may be approached with confidence [BW]
