Shostakovich composed his 24 Preludes and Fugues specifically for the Bach anniversary in Leipzig and the two composers were paired on recordings from very early on. In this project, Glemser wanted to connect the two composers much more intimately and not “musicologically”. It was more important to establish a sound dramaturgic sequence – to find corresponding moods. |

For her previous CD Edna Stern proposed to build a recording on four interpretations of Bach’s Ciaccona (Brahms, Lutz, Busoni and Bach at violin with Amandine Beyer). This new record follows a similar path and the choice of three chorals transcribed by Busoni and of 12 Preludes & Fugues takes us for an exploration of Bach’s keyboard pieces beyond the specific environment of the piano. “If you prefer Bach on the piano served up in heaping Romantic portions, accompanied by dollops of creamy tone, tapered phrases and languishing tenutos, Edna Stern's ravishing pianism will turn your ears to jelly. …a disc that will cause unrepentant pianophiles to jump for joy while historically informed performance mavens duck for cover.” Gramophone Magazine, July 2009 | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |

"Surely the Bach Preludes shouldn't prick like a thousand needles; the fugues can't possibly survive the savage
dynamic range unleashed on them here by Mustonen, yet they do, and your appreciation of the music is
enhanced in the process… Mustonen's delicacy, the feather-light touch, the luminous beauty of the tone are
all utterly ravishing, and Shostakovich's quirkiness is respected rather than exaggerated."
