Today, there is no doubt that Johann Sebastian Bach took Baroque music to it's sublime zenith. Just how much Bach was ahead of his time can be gauged by the fact his 'piano' music engaged the greatest among his successors: Mozart, Beethoven, Schumann, Chopin, Debussy and Shostakovich. Four pianists perform Bach on this album. They stand for different periods in interpretational history, beginning with the 'New Objectivity' of Carl Seeman, born in 1910, up to the highly virtuoso art of Konstantin Lifschitz, born in 1976 and also taught by Alfred Brendel. The four personalities of the pianists on this album merge with Bach's music, giving a notion of why it is accorded universal magnitude.
