Bach's pure polyphony gets along grandly with Katherine Roberts Perl's improvisatory spark for a recording that is fresh and fluid, yet also skillfully precise. Many musicians are intimidated by the complex, cerebral nature of the fugues, but Perl's expressive gifts and masterful sense of timing mean that she took great pleasure in these compositions, and her delight definitely comes through in the recording. Perl chose to performs these pieces in related key groups, which she describes as "a much more organic choice for the player." Here she starts with the sharp keys of book two, going around the circle of fifths. The other installment visits the flat keys, progressing through the other side of the circle. Her choice makes for a more natural, and highly rewarding listening experience. Says Perl, "It is with great reverence and humility that I attempt to communicate the awesome breadth, not only of Bach's compositional skill, but the power of his emotional and spiritual expressions."
