The Baroque period is represented by the significant works of Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), George Frideric Handel (1685-1759), and Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757). 13 of the 555 sonatas by the latter have been performed by Gilels in the recordings presented here. Also included are compositions by the French composer Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683-1764), the Italian Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741), and Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach (1714-1788). Gilels did not consider himself a very good interpreter of the works of Muzio Clementi (1752-1832), which is anathema for many piano students. This brings us to the age of Viennese Classicism and its great composers such as Joseph Haydn (1732-1809), Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791), and of course Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827). Gilels often performed Beethoven's five piano concertos and even made a studio recording with George Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra in 1968. That said, Ernst Müller believes that the recordings from the 1950s are far more valuable; he describes the recording of the Fourth Piano Concerto with Leopold Ludwig and the London Philharmonia Orchestra as \"one of the best recordings of all time.\"","brand":"Jean-Sébastien (Johann Sebastian) Bach","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57978305479000,"sku":null,"price":23785558.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/0881488170658.jpg?v=1786833131","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/jean-sebastien-johann-sebastian-bach_edition-volume-1-1933-1963_2018","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
