Notes and Editorial Reviews
C. P. E. Bach was particularly attached to the trio sonata, to which he devoted some of his finest works. The fluidity of his style, representative of the assimilation of the genre in the twilight of the Baroque period, is emblematic of the ‘sensibility' of a new musical era, that of the Enlightenment and the birth of Classicism in the shape of a new public eager for intimate atmospheres.
