J. S. Bach: Preludes and Fugues

(Trans. for solo piano by August Stradal) 3CDs
J. S. バッハ:前奏曲とフーガ(アウグスト・ストラダルによるピアノ独奏版) 3CD
アウグスト・ストラダル(1860年5月17日、ボヘミア、テプリツェ - 1930年3月13日、ボヘミア、クラースナ・リーパ)は、アントン・ブルックナーの弟子であった。ピアニストとしては、フランツ・リストに師事した。ヨハン・セバスティアン・バッハ、ルートヴィヒ・ヴァン・ベートーヴェン、ディートリッヒ・ブクステフーデ、リヒャルト・ワーグナーなどの作品をピアノ独奏用に編曲した作品を多数発表している。ストラダルの編曲は、時に問題が多く、両手だけで演奏するには厳しいものがあるが、魅力的な音楽の数々である。彼の編曲の特徴は、原曲の旋律をできるだけ強調するために多声部の集合を増やし、左手パートの音数を過剰ともいえるほど増やしていることである。そのため、演奏がかなり困難なものも多い。このセットでは、バッハのオルガンの前奏曲とフーガ(BWV.531~552、- 551を除く -)のストラダル編曲を、バーチャルピアニストのミヒャエル・ナナサコフが演奏しています。

    J. S. Bach: Preludes and Fugues, (Trans. for solo piano by August Stradal) 3CDs
    August Stradal (17 May 1860, Teplice, Bohemia ? 13 March 1930, Krasna Lipa, Bohemia) was a student of Anton Bruckner. His pianistic credentials included studies with Franz Liszt. He produced a wide amount of solo piano arrangements of works by Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, Dietrich Buxtehude, Richard Wagner and other composers. Stradal’s arrangements sometimes tend to prove problematic, and almost too demanding for merely two hands, but constitute a fascinating array of music. One of the particular characteristics of his arrangements are the increased multiple voice assemblies used to highlight the original melody as much as possible and an almost excessive increase in notes for the left-hand part. Many of them are considerably difficult to perform. This set presents a series of Stradal’s arrangements of Bach’s organ Preludes and Fugues (BWV.531 - 552, exc. 551) performed by the virtual pianist Michael Nanasakov.
