Music Minus One Piano-Based on a now-lost concerto for oboe and violin this beautiful Baroque work relies heavily on the two pianos for effect with a lovely but subdued string accompaniment. Bach dispenses with the strings altogether in the lovely central movement then ends with an exhilarating fugue. In short it is a gem! The concerto's companion-piece on this album Robert Schumann's Andante and Variations is a striking and unusual piece written in chamber music style for a small ensemble. It illustrates Schumann's daring experiments with the piano's possibilities. A totally unique and beautiful experience filled with beautiful instrumental textures and wonderful writing for the two pianos.Includes a high-quality printed music score and a compact disc containing a complete version of each composition with soloist (1st piano) in split-channel stereo (soloist on the right channel) then a second version in full stereo of the orchestral accompaniment minus the soloist. Performed by Neill Eisenstein piano Accompaniment: Stuttgart Festival Orchestra Conductor: Emil Kahn

Der Bach-Kommentar behandelt in vier umfangreichen Bänden das gesamte geistliche Vokalwerk Johann Sebastian Bachs und führt dabei theologische Deutung und den aktuellen Stand musikwissenschaftlicher Forschung zusammen. Für diese theologisch-musikwissenschaftliche Kommentierung wurden vor allem aus der zeitgenössischen Theologie der von Bach vertonten Texte wichtige Quellentexte herangezogen und in längeren Auszügen abgedruckt: neben der Bibelübersetzung Luthers zum Beispiel die »Olearius-Bibel« und sogenannte »Leit-Gesangbücher«. Dadurch ist es gelungen, neue Deutungsansätze zu entwickeln und das geistliche Vokalwerk Bachs – zum Beispiel auch liturgisch und kirchenjahresgemäß – genauer einzuordnen. Band III umfasst neben den Passionen Bachs die Fest- und Begräbniskantaten sowie Kantaten ohne erkennbare Bestimmung. Der abschließende Band IV wird die Kommentare zu Bachs Messe-Kompositionen, Magnificat und Motetten sowie verschiedene Register zu allen vier Bänden enthalten. Der AutorMartin Petzoldt (1946–2015) war Professor für Systematische Theologie an der Theologischen Fakultät der Universität Leipzig. In seinem Nachlass hat sich glücklicherweise ein komplettes Manuskript für diese beiden ausstehenden Bände gefunden, das von einem Expertenteam unter der Leitung von Norbert Bolin ediert und für den Druck vorbereitet wird.
