Cpe Bach: Night Thoughts
) | Label: HRN Catalog: HRN2 Format: CD Composed by: BACH, C.P.E. Edward Young s epic poem Night Thoughts (1742) has gone down in history as representative of the sentimental style known in Germany as Empfindsamkeit. Intimacy and immediacy were characteristics of a style that had turned its back on Baroque rhetoric; it was now no longer a question of persuasion but of allowing the flow of sentiments to be freely expressed. C.P.E. Bach translated this sensibility into music better than any other composer of his time.  Price: $20.98 |
