Bach. Family
« Bach. Family » is a program that explores the fascinating history of the legendary Bach family and their enormous contribution to the world of music.
Johann Sebastian and Carl Philipp Emanuel – these first names of the legendary Bach family of musicians are well known to most music lovers.
In addition to Carl Philipp Emanuel, Johann Sebastian Bach also had other talented sons, including Johann Christian and Wilhelm Friedemann. Musicians who were highly respected during their lifetime, wrote, among other things numerous works for piano. Edited quite early and often analyzed, but rarely played, their compositions increasingly fell into the background after the composers’ deaths.
In this concert, the award-winning pianist Anna Khomichko brings the fascinating history of the Bach family to the stage and also reprises rarely heard works. In addition, she takes a look at later arrangements of Johann Sebastian Bach’s works by Wilhelm Kempff and Ferruccio Busoni.
