Product Description

Sonata in E Minor:  1. Adagio  2. Allegro  3. Menuett & 2 Variations

Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach (1714-1788) was an influential composer who worked during a transition between the Baroque and Classical styles of music. His approach, empfindsamer Stil or "sensitive style," applied the principles of rhetoric and drama to musical structures. The duets composed by C.P.E. Bach are significant because they showcase his unique style and are considered some of his most important works. They are known for their unpredictability and expressive qualities, which were a departure from his father's style, Johann Sebastian Bach. The historical context of C.P.E. Bach's Wq 124 Sonatas lies in the mid-18th century during the transition between the Baroque and Classical periods. This period was characterized by significant changes in musical style, with composers exploring new forms and expressive techniques. As a prominent figure of this era, C.P.E. Bach played a crucial role in shaping the emerging Classical style, and his keyboard sonatas, including the Wq 124 Sonatas, reflect the expressive and innovative characteristics of this transitional period. The Wq 124 Sonatas are a testament to Bach's unique musical language. Their historical significance lies in their contribution to the development of keyboard music during this pivotal period in music history.
