Buxtehude - Suites and Variations : Colin Booth

Buxtehude - Suites and Variations by Colin Booth

Colin Booth : Buxtehude - Suites and Variations.
Solo harpsichord music.

Dietrich Buxtehude was the greatest musician in north Germany before J.S.Bach, who, being at that stage young and without many resources, took leave from his first organist post and walked for several days to stay and study with him in Lubeck. Buxtehude was justly famous as a virtuoso organist, composer, concert-organiser, and harpsichordist.

This selection from his keyboard works show him to have been a lively, tuneful character, and Bach, who was not known for his patience, was eventually reprimanded by his employers for staying in Lubeck long after his leave of absence had expired. Buxtehude's best-known harpsichord work closes this album: the 32 variations "La Capriciosa" were undoubtedly an inspiration and challenge for Bach, who was to "cap" them with his own "Goldberg Variations.
