Irene Roldán
Immerse yourself in the story of two priceless manuscripts: the Andreas-Bach-Buch and the Möller Manuscript, collected by Bach's eldest brother and teacher. The fascinating family albums reveal not only Johann Sebastian's teenage ingenuity, but also the influences that shaped him. Irene Roldán makes the harpsichord – with its 16-foot register! – vibrate in works by Buxtehude, Böhm, Marchand and Ritter, thus revealing the DNA of Bach's later masterpieces.
