From Bach to Ravel

Beschrijving

No fewer than 250 years of musical history are reviewed in this volume, beginning with the master composer Johann Sebastian Bach and culminating with Maurice Ravel.

In order to assist in the study of the faster works, the CD provides accompaniment trakcs at a slower tempo for ease of practising, as well as at the composer's specified speed for the finished performance. The CD also divides the longer works up into a greater number of tracks so that difficult passages can be worked on without the need to keep returning to the beginning.
