Carl
Philipp Emanuel Bach is
rightly regarded as the
most important composer
of the German art song
before Schubert. He set
new standards in the
interplay of cantabile
melodies and expressive
piano accompaniment. He
was also in personal
contact with the great
poets of his time -
including Gleim, Kleist
and Lessing - and shared
their interest in the
close relationship
between literary and
musical poesy. In his
late years Bach planned a
comprehensive selection
of his songs, but the
project was not
completed. This edition
follows the original
manuscript of his
Polyhymnia
collection.
