Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach

Piano Concerto in D Minor Wq23, H427

Accompaniment: Plovdiv Chamber Orchestra - Composed in 1748, this gorgeous and increasingly popular piece demonstrates the brilliance of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. It transcends its late baroque/early classical timeframe and is pervaded by a pensive quality and even a predisposition toward a romantic sensibility. Highly recommended and not of excessive difficulty (includes music with difficulty levels 3-7). This deluxe 2CD set includes a slow-tempo practice version to help you get up to speed. - Includes an authoritative, newly engraved music score on high-quality ivory paper; a digital stereo compact disc featuring a complete performance of the concerto with orchestra and soloist, and a second performance minus you, the soloist; and a second compact disc containing a full-speed version of the complete version as well as a special -20% slow-tempo version of the accompaniment for practice purposes. The concerto is voluminously indexed for your practice and performance convenience.
