Description:

Most great composers have left us countless pieces of music which rarely get heard.

They may not be part of a better-known set,  or may contain odd features which are not typical of the master’s more familiar style.

​

Colin’s latest CD features music of this kind.

His three previous Bach recordings (J. S. Bach – by Arrangement; the Goldberg Variations, and the Well-tempered Clavier) have all attracted extravagant critical praise.

Here we have a collection of unfamiliar keyboard gems, which all make immediately compelling listening. Also, as a theme, the programme investigates how Bach carried his organ-playing style home from St. Thomas’ church, allowing it to make its mark upon his music for domestic instruments
