While many pianists focus on the repertoire on pater familias Johann Sebastian Bach, few have done what Anthony Spiri is doing through focusing a substantial portion of his attention to the musical sons of J.S. Bach. This album features the sonatas and fantasies of Carl Philip Emanuel Bach, the second of the elder Bach's surviving sons. Like his father, C.P.E. Bach possessed a unique and varied harmonic palate that keeps listeners captivated. As for Spiri's playing, it's really quite remarkable. Performing on a modern, he is capable of producing a lightness and grace of articulation of which many fortepianists or harpsichordists would be envious. He controls the abundance of sonorities produced by the modern piano and focuses them in such a way that each note is clean and sparkling, yet at the same time he is able to put to good use the increased projection and volume of the modern instrument. The Solfeggio in C minor, the work on the album with which novice pianists are most likely familiar, is performed with unbelievable speed and agility. Slow movements, like the elegant Andante of the C minor sonata, are executed with remarkable nuance and introspection. Anyone interested in hearing more from Bach's sons should definitely give this album a try.
