Product Description

J.S. Bach's Trio Sonata No. 1 in E-flat Major, BWV 525, is a significant work in his oeuvre for organ. Here are some key points about this composition: It is one of Bach's six trio sonatas for organ, composed between 1727 and 1730 during his time in Leipzig.

The sonata has three movements: Allegro moderato, Adagio, and Allegro. It showcases Bach's mastery of counterpoint, with the three melodic lines expertly woven together in the trio texture. The sonata is written for two manuals and a pedal, allowing for a rich contrapuntal interplay between the three "voices."

The opening Allegro moderato movement features lively imitative entries. The Adagio slow movement is expressive and songlike, with the three voices engaging in an intimate musical dialogue. The final Allegro is a spirited gigue with intricate contrapuntal writing and virtuosic passagework.

BWV 525 exemplifies Bach's ability to create complex polyphonic works of great artistic merit for a single instrument, such as the organ. In summary, this trio sonata stands out as a prime example of Bach's contrapuntal genius and innovative writing for the organ, combining intellectual rigor with profound musical expression.
