The sons of J.S. Bach continued an already remarkable musical dynasty well into the classical age and exerted a powerful influence over composers such as Mozart and Beethoven. Their illustrious father just lived to see the earliest fortepianos and professed to be unimpressed by the new instrument. C.P.E wrote a concerto for harpsichord and fortepiano, ushering in a new age, and saying goodbye to the baroque era. C.P.E was the most original composer of the sons (Beethoven admired him and recommended to Karl Czerny's father that his son study 'Emmanuel Bach's textbook on the true manner of performing upon the pianoforte', and, in 1810 asked his publisher to send him all C.P.E's works). Whilst W.F. was probably the most naturally gifted of the sons, he appears reluctant to let go of the baroque period in his music. J.C.F. was a true keyboard virtuoso, though much of his keyboard music is undemanding. J.C., known as The London Bach, was a friend and of, and big influence upon Mozart. Rustem Hayroudinoff's passion for this music is evident in his beautifully curated album, containing some real gems and much that may be new to listeners.
