Selected Piano Sonatas, Volume II, Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. Piano solo

As a pedagogue and composer, Johann Sebastian Bachs second eldest son, Carl Philipp Emanuel, was preeminent in the field of keyboard music during the transitional period between the baroque and classical eras.
From his over 150 keyboard sonatas we have assembled a three-volume chronological selection that focuses on attractiveness and variety. Moreover, it makes available many previously unpublished sonatas. After all, sixty of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bachs keyboard sonatas remained unprinted during his lifetime. This second volume contains twelve sonatas from the period between 1749 and 1758. The available sources for our Urtext edition have been autographs, first prints thatappeared during Bachs lifetime and manuscript copies from Bachs circle.

Darrell M. Bergs preface provides important performance suggestions concerning the prescribed ornaments. With Bergs table of the most important embellishments and their correct rendition, the player is optimally equipped to study Bachs keyboard sonatas.
