About

The pianist Anthony Spiri has long been eager to introduce works by Carl Philipp Emanuel (1714-88) to a wider audience. Many of these pieces are barely known, not least because the music is not available in printed form but only in manuscript copies. Spiri's performance on a modern concert grand impressively reflects Bach's second eldest son's reputation as the "creator of the true art of playing keyboard instruments". This is certainly how he was seen by Haydn and by both Leopold and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
 
Magisterial and subtle performances from Anthony Spiri.
