Modern lutenists have for years been faced with the challenges of adapting Bachs lute suites for the German baroque lute. Peter Croton, one of the leading lutenists of his generation and lute teacher at the world famous Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, sheds new light on these works by presenting them on the Italian Lute, an instrument also used in Germany during Bachs lifetime. The selected works are performed without modification and in the original keys. Striving to come closer to the sound of the Lautenwerk, a keyboard instrument for which J.S. Bach apparently composed these works, Peter has created a recording of intimate timbres and subtle expression. In addition to performing three original lute works, he has transcribed Bachs first cello suite for the Italian lute, which will delight many admirers of this well-loved music. The CD closes with his arrangement of Bist du bei mir, one of the most beautiful and popular songs of the Baroque era. It is a fitting close to a recording of some of the most challenging and expressive music ever written for the lute.EAN: 0795754732122Run Time: 61.57Release Year: 2018 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
