Description<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
Bach displays a notable awareness of a career success and public acclaim in these, his most important and best loved works for keyboard. Whilst playing down the less popular contrapuntal and melodically orientated elements of the \u201cgallant\u201d style, Back seems to favour a more instrumentally-oriented style of virtuosic writing. It was, after all, Bach\u2019s prerogative to defend and to build on his high reputation as one of Germany\u2019s preeminent keyboard players. The exact date of composition of these works is not known. In light of the works\u2019 salient characteristics, it seems likely that they were collated and prepared for publication in the late 1970s, even though some of the works may have been composed at an earlier date. This coincides with Bach\u2019s taking over of the \u201cCollegium Musicum\u201d in Leipzig in 1729, after which Bach turned increasingly towards instrumental composition.<\/p>\n

Miku Nishimoto-Neubert was born in Tokyo, Japan , learned piano from an early age and began her formal studies at the University for Music and Art in Tokyo.<\/p>\n
