A Collection of Toccatas - For Solo Piano - BWV 910 BWV 911 BWV 912 BWV 913 BWV 914 BWV 915 BWV 916 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781447476726)

This volume contains the complete scores for Johann Bach's "A Collection of Toccatas" for solo piano. Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 - 1750) was a German musician and composer during the Baroque period. He based his work on exiting German styles but often adopted and adapted textures, rhythms, and forms from other countries, especially from Italy and France. Although his music was celebrated for its technical mastery, artistic beauty, and intellectual profundity during his lifetime, it was not until the 19th century that he was considered a great composer. Today, he is generally recognised as being one of the most important composers to have ever lived. Contents include: "Toccata in C Minor BWV 911", "Toccata in D Major BWV 912", "Toccata in D Minor BWV 913", "Toccata in E Minor BWV 914", "Toccata in F-sharp BWV 910", "Toccata in G Major BWV 916", and " Toccata in G minor BWV 915". Classic Music Collection constitutes an extensive library of the most well-known and universally-enjoyed works of classical music ever composed, reproduced from authoritative editions for the enjoyment of musicians and music students the world over.
