JOHANN CHRISTOPH FRIEDRICH BACH (1732-1795): Cello Sonata in D, IGNAZ MOSCHELES (1794-1870) /JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH (1685-1750): 10 Preludes from “The Well-tempered Clavier for Cello and Piano, Op. 137a.

Description: We’ve had the Moscheles/Bach before in its Op. 137b version for two pianos (10R026) so this is offered for the 1789 J.C.F. sonata, emblematic of its composer’s conservatism since, though it’s in the Classical style, it could have been written in the 1760s or 70s. Niklas Schmidt (cello), Stepan Simonian (piano).
