Bach, Johann Sebastian - Six Partitas BWV 825-830 for Piano (Multilingual Edition)

ISBN: B08R3QDVGC

Author: Bach

Condition: New

Bach's Six Partitas form what is presumably the most famous and challenging collection of suites in music history. Bach was aware of the weightiness of his cycle as he initially had these multi-movement partitas, composed in Leipzig between 1726 and 1730, published in individual editions. This culminated in their publication in an anthology that proudly sports the opus number "1" in 1731. Their diversity of forms knows no bounds and the musical texture is infused with the most ingenious counterpoint, but at the same time performers will not miss out on the enjoyment of virtuosic playing in any way.

Contains the following pieces: Partita No. 1 in B-flat Major, BWV 825 ; Partita No. 2 in C Minor, BWV 826 ; Partita No. 3 in A Minor, BWV 827 ; Partita No. 4 in D Major, BWV 828 ; Partita No. 5 in G Major, BWV 829 ; Partita No. 6 in E Minor, BWV 830
