Pierre Hantaï, harpsichord
JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH Le Clavier bien tempéré – excerpts from the Second Book With Le Clavier bien tempéré, Bach delivers a true monument. Within two vast collections of preludes and fugues (1722 and 1744), he methodically explores every possibility offered by equal temperament, which had emerged a few decades earlier. He takes hold of the improvised character of the prelude while giving it remarkable scope through its inventiveness and polyphonic richness. As for the fugue, a centuries-old form and architectural par excellence, he renews its possibilities with astonishing diversity. One thing is certain: Le Clavier bien tempéré conveys an impression of absolute freedom. Over the centuries, the score has established itself as the bedside book of the greatest figures in keyboard music: Mozart, Chopin or even Schumann.
An undisputed master of this repertoire, Pierre Hantaï knows all its subtleties and gives interpretations that have become references.
