Alexandre Tharaud – J.S. Bach: Prelude No. 1, BWV 846 (Das Wohltemperierte Klavier)

Bach’s Prelude in C Major carries a legacy as both one of the composer’s most well-known pieces and the inspiration for the melody of Gounod’s Ave Maria. Discover Alexandre Tharaud’s rendition in Le Poète du Piano: The collection brings together recordings made over a period of nearly 30 years, from 1991 to 2020. The first disc is devoted to solo repertoire, the second to concertos, and the third to rarities and surprises. Included within each are several previously unreleased tracks, from both the more distant and the very recent past.
