J.s. Bach: Inventions ... - Wolfgang Rübsam - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

Johann Sebastian Bach’s (1685-1750) 15 two-part Inventions and the 15 three-part Sinfonias played an important role in Bach’s teaching. These pieces, although today mainly associated with basic keyboard training, are not at all easy and in fact are sophisticated, small-scale masterpieces. They were not composed simply to provide technical training in keyboard playing but, perhaps more important, to teach keyboard players how to compose.

Wolfgang Rübsam is internationally known as an authoritative Bach interpreter, from recordings of the organ and harpsichord on several different labels. This new recording is played on a lute-harpsichord, an instrument that Bach would have had at home for both music-making in the family and for teaching.
