Burkard Schliessmann is a leading German pianist and musicologist who has perfected a totally individual approach to the performance of J S Bach, seeking the hidden expression and dynamics (indeed 'Romanticism' in the musical sense) available but rarely encountered in ‘standard’ interpretations.

His Bach has life and energy without losing any of the structural integrity. It’s very different and therefore has a place with all Bach lovers, however many versions they already own.

This is a 5-channel SACD with CD compatibility so will play in all standard players, and is presented in a luxury digipak with a 48 page booklet. Texts in English, German and French.
