Description:

Johann Sebastian Bach: Die Kunst der Fuge by Aapo Hakkinen, released 3 May 2024. This version of Johann Sebastian Bach: Die Kunst der Fuge comes as a 1xCD. -

"[Bach] speaks to us in his work in such clear terms that we may quite well call these fugues poems. (...) These have warmth, quiet joy, love. And running through all the poems, dressed in different guises, is the main theme, creating order, binding the work as a whole together: it is a safe bond in all it's diversity. Over all lies the proximity of death." (Enzio Forsblom) In this new recording, Bach's final magnum opus is played by Aapo Häkkinen on a harpsichord built in 1614 by Andreas Ruckers the Elder (1579-?1652) and which belonged to the composer John Blow (1649-1708), organist of Westminster Abbey and former teacher of Henry Purcell. A tradition exists that G.F. Handel had also played this harpsichord.
