J.s. Bach: Das Wohltemperierte Klavier Ii / Staier

Andreas Staier

With the two volumes of the Well-Tempered Clavier, Johann Sebastian Bach left behind one of the most fascinating masterpieces in music history. Strict form and emotional elements enter into a perfect union here. After several very remarkable albums dedicated to the cantor, Andreas Staier now takes the listener on an ascent of this musical Mount Everest, first via the north side, so to speak, i.e. with the second part of the work first, whose poetry and sensitivity he knows how to convey just as well and unaffectedly as the intimidating architecture.
