J.C. Bach - Sonata for Two Keyboards / Anna Kislitsyna (fortepiano), Irene Moretto (Harpsichord)

Wow that is amazing, perfect articulation, amazing accuracy, in time, thank you for posting this!

Anna.. I still listen to this recording from time to time. Such a delightful piece! You did a great job!

Brave! I’ve only heard this piece on two harpsichords or two pianos. The mix was delightful. Well played too!
(The first word is Italian )

What is the opus number? Key?

How absolutely delightful 😊 Thank you for this, it quite made my day ❤️

Maravilloso como se acompañan el clavecin y piano 👍

wunderschön gespielt!

Genial! <3

Fortepiano's control is easier than modern upright and Grand.

Sound of Early Fortepiano in 1709 was same harpsichord, sounded as iron string. But Hammer action made easy to play piano and sound smooth , thus In middle of 18 Centry fortepiano's sound made smooth sound in Concert hall or home.
And Anna is great pianist.

Genau, Diese ist eine bessere Musik.

I love this version

Bach's composing sons were mediocre but enterprising

It is very interesting to hear harpsichord and pianoforte played together.

What a great piece! I love the music of JC Bach. This is a masterful and delightful performance. Thank you for sharing it.

Brilliantly executed! A joy to listen to this work!

Анна, спасибо. Просто дивно

Thank you so very much for sharing your playing with us! You both capture the spirit of this music perfectly.

Amazing, Hermoso, gracias por compartir

Ah! The London Bach was a chip off the old Bach! Sprightly and precise performance; thanks.

This an amazing performance of this very pleasant piece! The choice of two different and contemporary keyboard instruments seem to balance each other very well while providing a much clearer contrast between the two parts than is usually afforded by pairs of the same instrument. This brings out the various instances of imitation that happen throughout the piece.

Wonderful performance! The equilibrium between these two instruments (Not Any harpsichord with ANY fortepiano but these individual instruments)is EXQUISITE as well as the interpreters. ¿Would you consider playing more pieces, for example K.448 or BWV1061? I found 2 or more harpsis irritating and 2 pianos boring, as you cannot distinguish which one plays what. But, what a pleasure would be listening to the two of you playing those pieces! Please, please, please!!!♥

i love the combination betwenn a harpshicord with a fortepiano

For a music lover who can't distinguish between a fortepiano and a harpsichord visually, if he identifies the playing of both aurally what does it mean? To me the meaning is that he has enjoyed the rendition. Yes, indeed. Thanks.

Incredibly charming work performed wonderfully, who could ask for more? Thank you for posting!

I absolutely love this piece of music and the masterful performance of it. The musicians keep together with excellent precision and keep the music light and delightful. Thank you for sharing this performance!

I imagine this might have been performed in the 1770s this way quite often, when fortepianos were relatively rare. Very nicely performed. J.C. was certainly the spiritual father of Mozart...this is no more evident than in the keyboard works and piano concerti.

I love it. New music to me. Both instruments played superbly and each has such a good tone. (Except when using the buff stop😀).

I love this cute little sonata. Each time I listen to it, though I cannot help noticing just how much more powerfully resonant the pianoforte is as an instrument than the harpsichord is. I enjoy harpsichord music, yet when it plays with the piano, one can truly hear how much expressive power the dampers on a piano give it: here the harpsichord almost sounds like “accompaniment” for the piano

This is the best, most perfectly paced and timed performance of JC Bach’s little sonata. Bach’s instruction/working title, however, did NOT specify that the piece should be performed by one pianoforte and one harpsichord, right? It indicated only that the sonata was “pour deux clavecins,” I think…

I recently heard a version of this in which TWO CONCERT GRAND STEINWAYS played the two parts. It was dreadfully cold, formalistic, mathematical , and it felt DISTANT. Your version preservrs the intimacy, warmth, and seeming immediacy that had to be the case in the 18th century, when the differing venues at which such a piece would have been performed had “lords and ladies” with particular preferences (and one must please a patron), and sometimes one simply had to use the instruments that were AVAILABLE at a particular venue. That’s prob why JC Bach’s instructions were so vague about “which KINDS of keyboard were to be used. TERRIFIC CHOICE! I especially enjoy the “spirited” play of Ms Kislitsyna!!!

What perfect combination of instruments - it’s wonderful how they work together!

Simply beguiling. Thank you!!

Meraviglioso 👑🎼🎹🎶🎶🎶🎶🎵❤🎇✨🌌😊

So lovely! I keep coming back to this.

Get on time

He lived a good part of his life in London. He took for almost a year the great responsability to teach a little boy coming with his father, also a musician, from Salzburg. It is absolutely evident to me, the inmense influence he had on little Mozart.

Bravo!!

what a splendid piece and what a terrific performance :D

That fortepiano sounds wonderful!

DELIGHTFUL 😊

Could you please record a performance of Mozart’s Sonata for Two Pianos (K. 448) using this combo of instruments?
