Par AASS LARS / HINSON MAURICE. The stylistic transition from the late Baroque to the Classical period was almost something of a Bach affair. While Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) defined and summed up the Baroque musical language, his sons Willhelm Friedemann, Carl Philipp Emanuel, Johann Christoph Friedrich and Johann Christian, infused with the spirit of innovation, struck new musical paths that opened the way to the Classical and Romantic eras. This piano book celebrates the work of these four sons of Bach with a fascinating and varied collection of pieces for the grade 2-5 player. **ABRSM selected piece (Piano 2019-2020): Allegro in A / Instrumental Music, Piano Music / Recueil / Piano
