FOUR CENTURIES OF J.S. BACHLouis Nagel "Mr. Nagel's interpretation of the Bach shows not only his fine command of the piano, but his constant searching for the true expressive possibilities of this music. His abilities as a pedagogue, as a performer and as a scholar are all synthesized to produce a very convincing result." – Murray Perahia No, Johann Sebastian Bach did not live for four hundred years! But he occupies a pivotal position in the history of keyboard music. The works on this unusual CD span four centuries, exploring the influence on Mendelssohn, Hindemith and Shostakovich. Although some of these pieces were originally composed for the harpsichord, all of the works on this disc are performed on the modern concert grand by Louis Nagel.
