Wilhelm Friedemann Bach (1710–84) was one of the most outstanding, yet at the same time, most idiosyncratic composers of his time. His work reflects his ambitious attempt to assimilate his father’s legacy and to develop it further to suit the taste of his own generation. This becomes apparent in his keyboard music – from the early works to the late sonatas and fantasias. Léon Berben’s inspiring performances emphasize the composer’s special synthesis of high-baroque complexitiy and galant, sensitive style.
