J S Bach Wolfgang Rübsam - The Art Of Fugue Vol 1
Review by Mohammed Reda Sewilam
The Art of Fugue, a masterpiece by J.S Bach, is a collection of fugues and canons that showcases the composer's expertise in counterpoint. In this recording by Wolfgang Rübsam, the listener is treated to a stunning rendition of this timeless work.
Rübsam, a renowned Bach interpreter, brings his technical prowess and musical sensitivity to this album. His playing is precise and nuanced, capturing the complexity and beauty of each fugue and canon. The recording quality is excellent, allowing the listener to appreciate the intricate interplay of the different voices.
One of the highlights of this album is Rübsam's interpretation of the unfinished final fugue, which has been the subject of much speculation and debate among music scholars. Rübsam's rendition is thoughtful and respectful, highlighting the mystery and majesty of this enigmatic piece.

About J S Bach Wolfgang Rübsam
Johann Sebastian Bach was born on March 21, 1685 in Eisenach, Thuringia, Germany. A prolific German composer and organist, his sacred and secular works for choir, orchestra and solo instruments drew together the strands of the baroque genre and brought it to its ultimate maturity. Although he introduced no new forms, he enriched the prevailing German style with a robust contrapuntal technique, a control of harmonic and motivic organisation from the smallest to the largest scales, and the adaptation of rhythms and textures from abroad, particularly Italy and France. Many people consider him to be the greatest Baroque composer, and one of the greatest composers of all time.
Revered for their intellectual depth, technical command and artistic beauty, J.S. Bach's works include the Brandenburg concertos, the keyboard suites and partitas, the Mass in B Minor, the St. Matthew Passion, The Musical Offering, The Art of Fugue and a large number of cantatas, of which about 220 survive. He died on July 28, 1750.
Some of his sons also became composers - , , and .
