Description:

The world premiere recording of the Italian Martucci arrangement of J.S. Bach's "Orchestral Suites for Piano Solo"! Italian musician Chiara Bertoglio is not only a pianist who gives musical and intellectual performances, but also an excellent musicologist who has received an award from the Pontifical Academy of Music. In this fourth volume of the "Bach and Italy" series, Giuseppe Martucci (1856-1909) presents three of Bach's orchestral suites No. 1 to No. 3, arranged for solo piano by Giuseppe Martucci (1856-1909). The concept of Bach's music presented in Martucci's arrangement is very powerful and majestic, and it reminds us once again that the music, especially in the slow movement, is magnificent and on a huge scale. This is the world premiere recording of Martucci's solo piano arrangement of Bach's masterpiece, the Orchestral Suite. The connection between Bach and Italy is expressed by the Bertolio on the Steingraber grand piano. Tokyo M-Plus
