Sir Andr谩s Schiff, piano
The two volumes of Bach鈥檚 The Well-Tempered Clavier are a window onto an extraordinary musical imagination 鈥� an infinitely varied, beguiling series of musical reflections and questions. Following his complete performance of Book 1 in the 2017 season, distinguished pianist and Bach specialist Sir Andr谩s Schiff returns to the 大象传媒 Proms to perform the complete Book 2. Much more than just a musical sequel, this volume pushes harmony and counterpoint further than ever before in its fascinating and uniquely challenging sequence of works.
