\nWith the album Bach Tharaud, the world-class French pianist is now following in the footsteps of one of the most famous composers of all time.
\nHowever, Alexandre Tharaud transcends genre boundaries even with this classic.
\nThe pianist took pieces such as a choral movement from Bach’s St. John Passion, a Siciliano from a flute sonata or a Bourr\u00e9e from a lute suite and transcribed them for his instrument.
\nIn doing so, Tharaud is following Bach’s own tradition; after all, as an admirer of Antonio Vivaldi, the composer transformed his orchestral works into organ concertos.
\nAlexandre Tharaud also included existing piano arrangements in the program, such as the chorale “Erkenne mich, mein H\u00fcter” from the St. Matthew Passion.
\nBach must not have let go of the longing, intimate melody of the original hymn for some time, as he incorporated it into other works.
\nAdmired by music connoisseurs more than almost any other composer, Bach’s works were also adapted by other composers.
\nCharles Gounod, for example, developed his popular “Ave Maria” from Bach’s Prelude and Fugue No. 1 in C major, merging two different musical eras. Johann Sebastian Bach \/ transkr.
