Final volume of Fasch keyboard music published
June 6, 2013

fasch-vol-3.jpgThe third and final volume of keyboard music from the reclusive Carl Fasch contains his four sets of extended keyboard variations, including some impressive displays of virtuosity, and a variety of short keyboard works, the majority of them previously unpublished.

This volume completes the survey of his Complete Keyboard Works, which justify contemporary opinion that he was the true successor to C. P. E. Bach, and for the first time provides the modern player with remarkable new repertoire for performance on the clavichord, harpsichord, or fortepiano.
