The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book 2 (Prelude and fugue No. 3 in C sharp major, BWV 872)
Experience ClassicalAvailable for over a year
Bach's first 'Clavier' book was completed in 1722 and then - only 20 years later - he gave us Book 2! These works are musicologically important but it's music of rare and soothing beauty. Composer: Johann Sebastian Bach Performer: Cedric Tiberghien (Piano) Date of broadcast: 16 October 2012
