Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring: Favorite Piano Transcriptions Product Description

Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring: Favorite Piano Transcriptions by Wilhelm Kempff was released Jun 12, 2007 on the Deutsche Grammophon label. Pianist Wilhelm Kempff recorded very little Bach and it's a shame given how beautifully he articulates many of the composers' most famous melodies here. Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring: Favorite Piano Transcriptions As if filtered through a romantic sensbility, Kempff downplays the Baroque dance element in favor of a more contemplative approach where underlying textures and rhythms are beautifully brought to the fore. Rarely has the power of Bach been so imaginatively and uniquely revealed! Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring: Favorite Piano Transcriptions contains a single disc with 29 songs.
