Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN / KURTAG (Arr.). This edition continues the series of György Kurtág\'s Bach transcriptions for piano duet which were published in \'Transcriptions from Machaut to J. S. Bach\' and \'Seven Bach Chorales\'. These pieces were originally written for the Kurtágs, György and his wife Márta, for their own use, and they were often played, together with the \'Játékok\' [Games] pieces, at the couple\'s piano duet concerts. This transcription is dedicated to Víkingur Ólafsson. / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Répertoire / Piano 4 Mains

The first movement is a concerto movement, but the solo and tutti passages are often ambiguous. The declamatory character and its rhythmically and melodically independent solo parts make the Lento sound more like an aria from Bach's cantatas than a chamber sonata. Titles: Vivace * Lente * Allegro.
