- SONATA BWV 525 - First Movement
Product description
The first movement of Bach's Trio Sonata BWV525, written by György Kurtág for piano duo, in an interesting arrangement for 1 piano and 3 hands. He originally arranged the movement for himself and his wife Márta, with whom he often performed together as a married piano duo.
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period. He is considered one of the greatest musical geniuses of all time. He was a master of polyphony and brought to perfection the musical form of the fugue. He composed 1126 musical compositions of various forms (they are referred to by the abbreviation BWV and serial number). In his time, Bach became famous mainly as a keyboard player, but as a composer he was less known. His music was perceived as conservative, and after his death it fell into oblivion for almost fifty years.
György Kurtág (*1926) is a Hungarian composer, pianist and music teacher.
