BENJAMIN ALARD RELEASES BACH VOL. 10
Benjamin Alard’s monumental project to record all of J.S. Bach’s keyboard works for harpsichord, clavichord, and organ progresses steadily – and wonderfully! Volume 10, of what is expected to be a 17 Volume project, was released earlier this year and focuses on music written during Bach’s early years in Leipzig. Included are the six Trio Sonatas (BWV 525 – 530) performed here on harpsichord and clavichord, and also the much-loved ‘little keyboard book’ of Anna Magdalena. S oprano Gerlinde Sämann also features on the album. Issued under the Harmonia Mundi label. Segments of some of the Trio Sonatas available on YouTube.
