Böhm: Complete Keyboard Works - Volume 2

Description

Newly edited by Gesa Wolgast on the basis of Johannes Wolgast's edition.

Böhm's greatness is to be found in small forms. We frequently find Thuringian, north German, and French elements of style existing peacefully side by side in his works. The latter elements may be traced to the influence of contemporary court music, with which he had come into contact earlier in Gotha and later in Hamburg and Lüneburg. However, his personal style is characterized by the manner in which he fused all these elements.
