JS Bach by arrangement : Colin Booth

Colin Booth : JS Bach by arrangement.
Solo harpsichord music.

Throughout his life Johann Sebastian Bach collected manuscript copies of music by other composers whom he admired. In some cases he arranged pieces by them for his own use, and re-arranged some of his own music for different mediums.

This album contains some of the great versions which he produced for himself and his family to play on the harpsichord. Also included are J. S. Bach's monumental Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue (which shows the influence of other composers, and is just a fantastic piece) and Colin Booth's own arrangement for harpsichord of Bach's famous D minor Chaconne for solo violin.
