The four composer-sons of Johann Sebastian Bach were figures of decisive importance in the transitional period between the Baroque and Viennese classicism. Around the middle of the 18th century they were influential not only as composers but also as virtuoso players of keyboard instruments in promoting the enormous change in style that took place during those decades. This volume offers a selection of the genres typical of the keyboard works by Bach's sons, thereby also giving students an excellent introduction to Viennese classicism and to the works of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven. Contains ABRSM Piano Syllabus pieces, Grades 3-6.Vier Söhne Johann Sebastian Bachs, die in die Fußstapfen des Vaters traten, sind bedeutende Figuren der 'Übergangszeit' zwischen dem Barock und der Wiener Klassik.

Jahrhunderts massiv an dem enormen Stilwechsel mit, welcher sich in diesen Jahrzehnten vollzog. Das vorliegende Heft bietet dem Schüler eine Auswahl an charakteristischen Gattungen von Werken der Bach-Söhne für Tasteninstrumente und führt sie dadurch ausgezeichnet in die Wiener Klassik, in die Stücke von Haydn, Mozart und Beethoven ein.

Johann Sebastian Bach's recorder parts are amongst the most delightful artistic challenges which baroque music has to offer players of this instrument. In the 25 cantatas and oratorios in which Bach uses the recorder, there are parts with moderate technical demands, but also many where the instrument is at the limits of the performing techniques of the time. Taken as a whole, Bach's recorder parts constitute a body of study material which presents plenty of challenges even for advanced players. This edition is intended to be both a resource for practice and for use in performance. It contains all the recorder parts from Bach's vocal works in Urtext editions in a practical layout. The music text is always given in full, and includes indications of movements where the recorder is tacet. Cue-sized notes help orientation within the scoring. Where necessary additional transposed parts for instruments at different pitches are included, or alternative variants are suggested on ossia staves. The music text matches the sources. The text section includes an introduction and commentary on the individual pieces. The introduction covers the different types of recorder in Bach's time, the body of works and the source material, as well as various specific problems. The commentary includes information about each work, the sources and the approach to editing the music in each case, plus comments on variant readings and tips on performance practice and performing technique.
