CPE Bach: Harpsichord Concertos Wq 30, 37 & 38 /Les Amis de Philippe * Remy
C. P. E. Bach wrote more than 60 keyboard concertos for instruments  ranging from harpsichord to piano--and everything in between. And believe me,  there were a lot of strange instruments in between. Modern performances,  however, generally prefer either the harpsichord or the piano, and the music  works very well on either instrument. C. P. E. was the most famous of Bach's  sons--more famous than his father, actually, in the 18th century--and his music  is extremely expressive and moving. As these exciting performances show, it's  highly emotional, quirky, and consistently interesting and unpredictable. He's  really a composer worth getting to know.--David Hurwitz
